Fascism/Could It Happen in the US?
[ send me this essay ]
A 4 page research paper that examines the nature of fascism and whether it could occur in the US. Since the 1930s and 40s, historical scholarship has wrestled with the problem of precisely how to define fascism, in both its Italian and German forms, and how to differentiate these forms from other totalitarian regimes, such as Stalinism. The lurking question behind all of such scholarship is whether or not fascism could emerge again on the world political stage. Looking at the common factors shared by the regimes of Hitler and Mussolini, as well as the features that they both share with Stalinism. There appears to be common ground in all of these authoritarian regimes that appeals to something basic in Western character and which, therefore, constitutes a danger to the concepts of democratic governance.
