Nationalism, Syndicalism, Gentilian Idealism: Three Components of Fascism

Nationalism, syndicalism, and Gentilian idealism were but three components in the generally messy mixture of Fascist ideas and aspirations.... More specifically, all saw the scope for a radical departure that, under present circumstances, would have to be overtly anti-Marxist.... the contrast between producers and parasites was more relevant for the foreseeable future than orthodox Marxist class conflict.... The sense of having worked through and beyond Marxism, as an outmoded nineteenth-century conception of problems and solutions, was a major aspect of the Fascist self-understanding and claim to leadership.
