The Universal Aspects of Fascism & Fascism

Born in India, raised in Italy and Great Britain, James Strachey Barnes (1890-1955) was Secretary-General of the International Centre of Fascist Studies in Lausanne and a personal friend of Benito Mussolini. In the two books grouped in this volume, Barnes sets out to define the philosophy, the worldview (Weltanschauung) and the principles underlying fascism in which he sees a return to medieval values and a spiritual and moral revolt against the causes of the modern decay, namely materialism, subjectivism and individualism. A fervent Catholic, he also demonstrates the perfect compatibility of this doctrine with the teaching of the Church. This republication is enriched with a foreword by Roberto Fiore, a founding member of the Third Position movement and current National Secretary of Forza Nuova and President of the Pan-European nationalist political party Alliance for Peace and Freedom.
