The Philosophy of Fascism
The Philosophy of Fascism (1936) is a political and philosophical work by Mario Palmieri examining the theoretical foundations of Italian Fascism. The book presents Fascism as a philosophy of life rather than merely a system of government, emphasizing idealism, spiritual values, national unity, and the ethical role of the state. Palmieri explores the relationship between the individual and society, the nature of political authority, and the rejection of liberal individualism and materialist conceptions of politics. Written for an English-speaking audience, the work offers a systematic exposition and defense of Fascist philosophical doctrine.
