Summary of Michael Parenti's Blackshirts and Reds

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 Fascist history exists in many forms, from posters and T-shirts to books and articles that attempt to sanitize fascist history. They say little if anything about the class policies of fascist Italy and Nazi Germany.

#2 Fascist leader Benito Mussolini was born in 1883. He had spent his early life fighting with socialists, and by the end of World War I, he had become a fascist, organized strikes for landowners and industrialists, and broke strikes on behalf of financiers.

#3 In Germany, the Nazis were funded by business tycoons to terrorize workers and farm laborers, and in 1930, most of the tycoons had decided that the Weimar Republic no longer served their needs. They greatly increased their subsidies to Hitler, propelling the Nazi party onto the national stage.

#4 Fascist politics and economics were similar in Italy and Germany, two countries with different histories, cultures, and languages. They ended up with the same repressive solutions because of the similarities of economic power and class conflict that existed in their respective countries.
