Description

Provides students with an opportunity to try to understand what fascism is, what it looks and sounds like. Course investigates the conditions from which fascism arises, attempting to answer such questions as: Why is fascism always nationalist? How does it relate to liberalism and capitalism? A wide variety of literature is studied to answer these questions ? from Marx?s writing to the Futurist Manifesto to early-20th century analyses of fascism to contemporary psychoanalytic and political economic analyses. The course pays special attention to a few themes, including economy, ideology, culture, psychology and fascism?s social movement quality.
