Summary "Readings on Fascism and National Socialism" by Various is a scholarly collection of primary texts and analyses curated to shed light on the ideologies of fascism and national socialism, likely compiled in the mid-20th century. The work examines the underlying philosophies and doctrines articulated by key figures such as Benito Mussolini and Giovanni Gentile, while encouraging readers to critically engage with the ideas presented and their historical implications. The opening of this compilation features a prefatory note that outlines the goal of these readings as a means for students to evaluate and clarify their understanding of social philosophy, particularly through the lens of fascist and national socialist thought. It emphasizes the necessity of comparing these ideologies to various philosophical alternatives. The first reading included is "The Doctrine of Fascism" by Mussolini, which establishes fundamental principles of fascism, focusing on its philosophical and ethical underpinning. Mussolini paints fascism as a proactive and spiritual movement that prioritizes the state over the individual, advocating for action and sacrifice as a means of achieving a cohesive national identity and strength.
