What kind of books should read someone who is new to fascism?

I'm planning to read codreanu's book "for my legionaries", Oswald Mosley's "tomorrow we live" and Giovanni gentile's books.
What should I also read Sup Forums?

I think it’s pretty important to note that fascism is held at a sort of religious level to some people around here. It’s racial purity. If you think of it that way, I find it pretty important to learn about your own history and culture before getting very deep into fascist literature. Second half of Mein Kampf is the NatSoc doctrine, so definitely read that, but after that I think it becomes you learning history and culture of Europe and its people and holding it to a standard nearly unreachable.

part 2

I already learn a lot about european culture and history, what I want to know more about is the actual doctrine of fascism.
I've already read mein kampf long ago, not because I was interested by national socialism at this time but rather because I thought it was such an important book that I was forced to read it. I read Das kapital for the same reasons.

Thank you

Mussolini wrote a 100 pages book on fascism that is easily available and a short read.

You should try Maurice Bardèche's "Qu'est ce que le fascisme ?" and "Sparte et les Sudistes"

I’ve heard, but can’t personally say, that the glass bees is a pretty fascist book. Written by a Nazi soldier in the 50s

Do you know if there is some interesting pre-ww2 works on fascism in france?

>I became a fascist without knowing shit about fascism
sounds right, sounds Sup Forums

100 questions asked and answered by Oswald Mosley.
Anything with Julius EVola, he was more of a traditionalist than a fascist but alot of his ideas are compatible or even part of the fascist ideology.
(someone correct me if I'm wrong)

I'm not fascist, just interested in the ideology.

Original sources:
Doctrine of Fascism
Codreanu: For my legionaries
Julius Evola: Fascism viewed from the right
Manifesto of falange
Alfred Roaenberg's: Myth of 20th century

Historical studies:
Ernst Nolte: Three faces of Fascism and if you speak kraut Europaische Bürgerkrieg
Thomas Molnar's essay of Maurass
Alain de Benoist article about fascism

Key texts of conservative revolution:
Oswald Spengler's Decline of the west and Man and Technics
Ernst Junger: Storms of steel and der Arbeiter
Carl Schmitt: Concept of political
Martin Heidegger: Being and time and essay for German students

Check also Julius Evola's trilogy: Revolt against the modern world, Man among the ruins and ride the tigers, some work by Gentile and Parretto, Futurist Manifesto by Marinetti and constitution of Fiumme by D'Annunzio. In my opinion is also splendid peace of work on the topic Marco Tarchis book Faschismo which is sadly avaible only in Italian.

Start with Codreneau and Mosely, both diff angles (Codreneau very dramatic and anti semitic, Oswold very practical and policy based), then read the Italian stuff to understand how it came about, also look up Action Francaise and national Catholicism, then do Mein Kampf and Goebbells Diaries to get the race angle, then desu the best stuff is actually Evola, also Ezra Pound TS Elliot (but they aren't political at all).

Alphonse de Chateaubriant's "La gerbe des forces" talks about the 3rd reich. Hitler told the author that this book shows he understood better the nature of his work and regime than most of those who voted for him.

Brasillach's "Les sept couleurs" tells the author's experience of his visit in pre-war Germany. Interesting but not necessary.

But both of these are about Germany, so maybe not specifically what you are looking for .

If you want something that gets closer to fascism I'd suggest to try Charles Maurras. I didn't though so can't say much about it.

Charles Maurras

Like Short History of Decay in there. It is unremittingly bleak though

Thank you, I have already read Maurras a lot, integral nationalism is really interessant.
It seems like fascism wasn't really a thing in france.

Check out Mark Collett’s “The Fall of Western Man”

thefallofwesternman.com

It’s a free ebook download.

Well worth a read , as it updates fascism/NatSoc for the current year.

what observations did he make about it?

I've read it like 10 years ago.

What I remember the most is his meeting with Hitler, where he talked about his piercing blue eyes his small stature and kindness, a man who seemed to carry all the world's weight and his people's troubles on his shoulder. I don't know if he really met him as it was part of a short story, but it really seemed like he did.

I remember too the protagonist asking himself while drinking a beer at a terrace if all of this was really gonna endure time, or if it will be remembered as a curious, unbelievable distant dream for the generations to come.

He talked about the flags everywhere too.

Just so you know he was shot for never apologizing for his writing after the war, as he was very sympathetic to the germans.
