Routledge An Authoritarian Third Way in the Era of Fascism - Routledge

Explore the complex political landscapes of the 1930s with this scholarly study from Routledge. This book provides a transnational and comparative analysis of how an authoritarian third way emerged during transitions to authoritarianism. By examining specific historical contexts in both Europe and Latin America, the text investigates the diffusion of political models that sat between traditional democracy and fascism. Readers gain insight into how certain regimes sought to establish unique political identities. The research highlights specific historical examples, including the Iberian dictatorships of Primo de Rivera in Spain and Salazar's New State in Portugal, as well as the short-lived Dollfuss regime in Austria. This work is essential for students and historians interested in the study of fascism, the far right, and the shifting political structures of the early 20th century.
