Fascism: A Very Short Introduction (Paperback)

Kevin Passmore looks at the paradoxes of fascism from its origins in the political and social crisis of the late-nineteenth century, through the history of fascist movements and regimes in Italy and Germany, and the fortunes of 'failed' fascist movements in Romania, Hungary, and Spain. He examines how it used and uses propaganda and popular culture to propagate itself, and how its recent revival has come about.
