Fascism, the Right, and the Left

Source: EconLog
by Pierre Lemieux

“The kinship between the extreme right and the extreme left suggests that the conventional axis left-right is not a satisfactory model. The left and the right share more than is apparent. The proper simple model would be a circle where the extreme left and the extreme right meet on a common arc. Alternatively, an important dimension seems to be missing. This becomes rather obvious when we ask historical experts in fascism about the foundations of their ideology.” (06/29/25)
