The birth of fascism. The world on the eve of World War II
Fascism was a reflection and result of the development of the main
contradictions of Western civilization. His ideology absorbed (bringing to the
grotesque) the ideas of racism and social equality, technocratic and statist
concepts. An eclectic intertwining of various ideas and theories resulted in the
form of accessible populist doctrine and demagogic politics. The National Socialist
German Workers' Party grew out of the Free Workers' Committee for a Good
Peace, a circle founded in 1915 by the worker Anton Drexler. At the beginning of
1919, other organizations of the National Socialist persuasion were created in
Germany. In November 1921, a fascist party was created in Italy with 300,000
members, 40% of whom were workers. Recognizing this political force, the King of
Italy ordered in 1922 the leader of this party, Benito Mussolini (1883-1945), to
form a cabinet of ministers, which from 1925 becomes fascist.
According to the same scenario, the Nazis come to power in Germany in
1933. Party leader Adolf Hitler (1889-1945) receives the position of Reich
Chancellor from the hands of German President Paul von Hindenburg (1847-
1934).
From the first steps, the fascists proved themselves to be implacable anti-
communists, anti-Semites, good organizers capable of reaching out to all
segments of the population, and revanchists. Their activities could hardly have
been so rapidly successful without the support of the revanchist monopoly circles
in their countries. The presence of their direct ties with the Nazis is not in doubt,
if only because next to them in the dock in Nuremberg in 1945.turned out to be
the leaders of the criminal regime and the largest economic magnates of fascist
Germany (G. Schacht, G. Krupp). It can be argued that the financial resources of
the monopolies contributed to the fascistization of countries, the strengthening
of fascism, designed not only to destroy the communist regime in the USSR (anti-
communist idea), inferior peoples (the idea of racism), but also to redraw the map
of the world, destroying the Versailles system of the post-war system (revanchist
idea ).
The phenomenon of fascisization of a number of European countries has
even more clearly demonstrated the critical state of the entire Western
civilization. In essence, this political and ideological trend represented an
alternative to its foundations by curtailing democracy, market relations and
replacing them with a policy of etatism, building a society of social equality for the
