Fascism is one of the most destructive and influential political movements of the twentieth century. Its imagery—of mad dictators and nihilistic violence—haunts our imaginations, and its historical legacy is almost too momentous to be understood. At the same time, it is curiously elusive: how do we define fascism? What is the basis of its appeal? Why did it take root so successfully in Germany and Italy, and not in France or Britain? Fascism—a sweeping, enthralling study—tackles these questions, and considers fascism in the round. It draws together its different strands, in Italy, Germany, France, and Britain, looking at its evolution up to and during World War II; and it assesses post-war fascism, and examines its future in a Europe whose boundaries continue to change. Along the way, Fascism provides vivid portraits of Mussolini, Hitler, Oswald Mosley, and other key figures within the movement. Lucid, dramatic, and challenging, Fascism is a definitive book of its kind.

Quotations: Mr. Eatwell told CA: "I have always been interested in the role of ideas and propaganda in politics. I am especially interested in the way in which extremist movements can suddenly emerge and have for some time predicted that a new wave of fascism or racism would re-emerge in Europe, which is my main geographical area of interest, though I follow American and other extremist developments. I am also interested in differences in national cultures and how these help legitimize or de-legitimize extremism."
He married in 1986. His wife’s name is Judith (a teacher). They have two children: Laura Elisabeth, James Laurence.
