Fascist Regionalism: Nordic Cooperation among Scandinavian Fascist Parties in the 1930s The article examines the genesis and evolution of cross-border connections and cooperation among three fascist parties in Scandinavia in the 1930s, the National Socialist Workers’ Party of Denmark ...

Fascist regionalism is part of old Nazi policy in the Nordic/Scandinavian region. Quisling and other Nazi collaborators worked to increase cooperation in the region, but failed due to internal dissent.

Unser neues Heft #racism and #antiracism ist da!
Das Themenheft hinterfragt tief verwurzelte Vorstellungen von einem „nicht-rassifizierten“ Europa, die in Reaktion auf die rassistischen Verbrechen des europäischen Kolonialismus und Nationalsozialismus entstanden.

Danke für die Nachfrage. Eine deutsche Buchversion ist leider noch nicht in Planung, aber ich schreibe gerade an einem zusammenfassenden deutschen Artikel über den faschistischen Internationalismus für ein breiteres Publikum, der wäre vielleicht geeignet für Ihre Schüler*innen!

The epilogue discusses reverberations of fascist internationalism in the Second World War and the postwar period and outlines the relevance of this history for understanding contemporary forms of far-right internationalism.

This cooperation was fuelled by shared ideas of ultranationalism, anti-communism, antisemitism, white supremacism, and Europeanism. Fascist internationalism, marked by contradictions and an Italo-German rivalry, emerged in the 1930s as a counter-reaction to liberal and communist internationalism.

My book analyzes the ideas and forms of international cooperation between Fascist Italy, Nazi Germany, and fascist movements from Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, Ireland, and Britain. The study examines how fascists attempted to unite across borders by forming international organizations.

One main argument: "Recurring to the concept of fascism and finding comfort in a nostalgic rebooting of the grand struggles of the past is arguably ill-suited as a strategy in the face of what is a “darkness” of a different kind", meaning a postmodern era of "post-truth" in the 21st century

Interesting insights from the conceptual historians KølvraaI and Ifversen about the return of the concept fascism in relation to Trumpism in an article published in @conhistcon.bsky.social. They analyze how fascism functions as an analytical category
but also as a weaponized "Kampfbegriff".
