BRITISH FASCISM - JOHN E RICHARDSON KARTONIERT ...

Fascism is inherently duplicitous  claiming one thing whilst being committed to something else.
In examining this dishonesty  it is essential to distinguish between the surface arguments in
fascist discourse and the underlying ideological commitments. Analyzing contemporary fascism is
particularly difficult  since no fascist party admits to being fascist. Drawing on the critical
insights of historical and linguistic research  this book offers an original and discerning
approach to the critical analysis of fascism. It demonstrates that any understanding of the
continuing popularity of fascist political ideology requires interdisciplinary analysis which
exposes the multiple layers of meanings within fascist texts and the ways they relate to social
and historic context. It is only through contextualization we can demonstrate that when
fascists echo concepts and arguments from mainstream political discourse (e.g. 'British jobs
for British workers') they are not being used in the same way.
