Fascism:Fascism: Glorifies the state above the individualby emphasizing the need for a strong

central government led by a dictatorial

ruler. People are controlled.Opposition suppressed.

As an Italian soldier during WWI


46/53

Italian Fascism under Mussolini

Anti-individualistic, the Fascist conception of life stresses the importance of the

State and accepts the individual only in so far as his interest coincide with those ofthe State. The Fascist conception of the State is an all-embracing; outside of it no

human or spiritual values can exist. Thus understood, fascism is totalitarian,

and the Fascist State interprets, develops, and potentiates the whole life of a

people.

War alone keys up all human energies to their maximum tension and sets the

seal of nobility on those people who have the courage to face it.
