Definitions of Fascism - Ernst Nolte

Ernst Nolte

Controversial historian and philosopher Ernst Nolte, by Hegelian dialectic, defined Fascism as a reaction against other political movements, especially Marxism:

Fascism is anti-Marxism which seeks to destroy the enemy by the evolvement of a radically opposed and yet related ideology and by the use of almost identical and yet typically modified methods, always, however, within the unyielding framework of national self-assertion and autonomy.
— Ernst Nolte, Three Faces of Fascism
