Description
Rather than concentrating on the content of Fascism, we shall study it as a movement, endeavoring to ascertain its background, its aims, doctrines, and objectives, its various mechanisms and the characteristic techniques applied, possibly arriving at the role of this particular movement in bringing about social change.
