Fascism and the Masses: The Revolt Against the Last Humans, 1848-1945 - Paperback

by Ishay Landa (Author)

Departing from the conventional image of fascism as mass-driven, this book analyzes the effort of interwar European fascism to defeat the masses. Fascism endeavored to terminate the secular advance of egalitarian and democratic trends, resisting what Nietzsche described as the reign of the peaceful and mediocre "Last Humans."
