Document Summary
Radical analyses of fascism that emerged among the new generation of post-war scholars in the late 1960s found that another common precondition for the rise of fascism was the defeat of the organised labour movement. The result was 534 u. m. vieten and s. poynting neoliberalism. The global rise of populist, right wing, nationalist, xenophobic movements is in large part a reaction to the insecurities and displacement of neoliberalism in the context of global financial crisis. These movements are not the same as fascism, yet they share many features in common. We must see the success of the thatcherite project in rendering unions insignificant as part of the context of contemporary rightwing racist populism. All of these populists project themselves by definition as anti-elite. This ideological rhetoric has unmistakable resonances of historical populisms such as fascism.
