Need your opinion on something
Send it
To graduate I need to do an essay, in this case about fascism, by my own choice
Oofah
Hoping to get a totally unbiased opinion
I went to pick up books at the library
What will your essay be covering?
Specifically
An analysis on the system, the economics and fundamentals
Basically
I want to show through an understanding of the political spectrum
And the nazi history specifically
How it doesn't belong on the right
You get it?
Thats a tough one. Acadamia doesnt really like a light shined on their ideologies
Academia?
Yes. My 2¢? If you need it to graduate, may want to rethink the premise of your essay
You need to do it. Not have an A
But, it's a little too late for that now
I mean, from an unbiased standpoint, look at what the Nazi party actually stood for and break that down. The Nazi Party was shortened from the National Socialist Party. So the Nationalist part is the belief that their country is superior. Generally, that tends to be a more "right" leaning premise to be proud of one's country. That being said the socialist part is a very left leaning economic stance. The end result of the party was a dictatorship, with the belief they were superior (nationalist) and the "redistribution" from the Jews to the rest of the government.
With your assigned tutor
I mean, weren't soviets really nationalist too?
For the motherland and everything?
I wish you luck. My daughter failed a semester 1 womens studies class for writing an essay called “Victimhood is not Feminism”
That notion is flawed too, since that attribute doesn't pertain to an specific side
Honestly, your best way to go about it is to break the party up and define those terms. You could also get into the overall backing of eugenics. And I don't recall.
Also how Giovanni Gentile, one of the creators of Fascism, studied Marx
And was influenced by his work
I mean, facism and communism/socialism go hand in hand. To take money or "redistribute the wealth" requires theft from an authoritative figure.
That's the thing. One of my totally not unbiased books talks about how it was controlled by "the great businessmen"
Oh
And originally, I was going to ask you about a quote from the book
For you to give your opinion
Not only do they cite an italian communist that says how fascism and communism are similar
But the authors say, referring to the use of the words "far-right, ultra-right, neofascism, radical right"
And I quote
"Though we are aware how this expressions correspond to different political realities."
How am I supposed to understand this?
So what, for the sake of convenience you will blatantly miscaracterise the system you're trying to explain to me?
Fascism is not distinctly right or left, as anarchy is neither of the two. If you use the political compass, which is flawed in many ways, the aspect of authoritarianism is at the top, where the libertarian aspect is at the bottom. This is because you can have leftist authoritarianism through Communism and Socialism, which tends to be fascist/run by a dictator.
