Fascism has remained a subject of heated debate and controversy since the end of the Second World War. Recognizing that there have been not one, but several, fascisms, the authors have produced one of the first completely interdisciplinary works to examine all aspects of the phenomenon. Among the contributors, all leading authorities in their fields, are historians, political scientists, sociologists, economists, and a psychoanalyst. Their discussion is systematic and comprehensive, and the book is both an original work of synthesis as well as a new interpretation, indicating lines of further research.
