Transatlantic Fascism de Federico Finchelstein

Transatlantic Fascism

Autor Federico Finchelstein
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 11 ian 2010

Observăm în ultimele decenii o schimbare de paradigmă în istoriografie, care trece de la analiza fascismului ca fenomen pur european la înțelegerea sa ca o mișcare globală, fluidă și transnațională. În Transatlantic Fascism, Federico Finchelstein documentează riguros această evoluție, concentrându-se pe relația simbiotică și adesea tensionată dintre Italia lui Mussolini și Argentina. Subliniem modul în care autorul demonstrează că Argentina nu a fost doar un receptor pasiv al ideologiei italiene, deși aproape jumătate din populația sa avea origini italiene, ci a creat o variantă locală distinctă. Remarcăm analiza profundă a 'nacionalismo', mișcarea de dreapta argentiniană care a refuzat simpla imitație. În loc de o copie fidelă, aceștia au integrat catolicismul în centrul doctrinei lor, susținând că fascismul lor era parte dintr-un plan divin. Această lucrare acoperă aceeași arie tematică precum Mussolini's National Project in Argentina de David Aliano, dar cu o abordare mult mai axată pe transformarea culturii politice interne și pe dezbaterile ideologice sacre ale dreptei radicale, nu doar pe eforturile diplomatice și eșecurile propagandei italiene. Apreciem cum Finchelstein poziționează această cercetare în contextul operei sale mai largi; dacă în A Brief History of Fascist Lies investiga structura irațională a adevărului fascist, aici explorează rădăcinile acestor construcții într-un spațiu geografic periferic Europei. Ritmul este cel al unei investigații istorice minuțioase, bazată pe documente de arhivă inedite, radio și presă, oferind o perspectivă esențială asupra modului în care ideologiile migrează și se adaptează cultural.

Descriere scurtă

In Transatlantic Fascism, Federico Finchelstein traces the intellectual and cultural connections between Argentine and Italian fascisms, showing how fascism circulates transnationally. From the early 1920s well into the Second World War, Mussolini tried to export Italian fascism to Argentina, the “most Italian” country outside of Italy. (Nearly half the country’s population was Italian or of Italian descent.) Drawing on extensive archival research on both sides of the Atlantic, Finchelstein examines Italy’s efforts to promote fascism in Argentina by distributing bribes, sending emissaries, and disseminating propaganda through film, radio, and print. He investigates how Argentina’s political culture was transformed as Italian fascism was appropriated, reinterpreted, or resisted by the state and the mainstream press, as well as by the Left, the Right, and the radical Right.As Finchelstein explains, nacionalismo, the right-wing ideology that developed in Argentina, was not the wholesale imitation of Italian fascism that Mussolini wished it to be. Argentine nacionalistas conflated Catholicism and fascism, making the bold claim that their movement had a central place in God’s designs for their country. Finchelstein explores the fraught efforts of nationalistas to develop a “sacred” ideological doctrine and political program, and he scrutinizes their debates about Nazism, the Spanish Civil War, imperialism, anti-Semitism, and anticommunism. Transatlantic Fascism shows how right-wing groups constructed a distinctive Argentine fascism by appropriating some elements of the Italian model and rejecting others. It reveals the specifically local ways that a global ideology such as fascism crossed national borders.

Recenzii

“Transatlantic Fascism is a fresh examination of fascism in Argentina from the perspective of its transnational connections. Federico Finchelstein provides new insight into fascism and its impact in Argentina.”--Donna Guy, author of Women Build the Welfare State: Performing Charity and Creating Rights in Argentina, 1880-1955

“Federico Finchelstein displays an exceptional combination of talents in Transatlantic Fascism: imagination tempered by diligence and meticulousness, independence tempered by judiciousness. His theoretical clarity and deep empirical research have forged a rich, intellectually rewarding, and important study of fascism. The book’s transnational perspective sheds much-needed light on a conceptually elusive ideology and political phenomenon.”--Jose C. Moya, author of Cousins and Strangers: Spanish Immigrants in Buenos Aires, 1850-1930“In this innovative, impressively researched work, Federico Finchelstein takes an ambitious comparative approach to the historical study of fascism. He shows both how fascism was a transnational ideology and how that ideology was inflected and joined with at times violent practices according to different national traditions. His close inquiry into the Italian-Argentine connection sheds new light on a complex set of problems, including dimensions of fascism related to religion and to the manner in which fascism was understood and experienced by its committed activists. This book is important not only for specialists in European and Latin American history but for all historians and social scientists interested in problems of comparative history and methodology.”--Dominick LaCapra, Professor of History and Bowmar Professor of Humanistic Studies, Cornell University“In this original and refreshing work on the history of fascism between Europe and Latin America, Federico Finchelstein elaborates a new concept--transatlantic fascism--that predictably will raise a large debate among historians. Written from the perspective of global history, this book rethinks the history of fascism in its international, not only European, dimension.”--Enzo Traverso, author of The Origins of Nazi Violence
