Amsterdam University Press Fascism, Liberalism and Europeanism - Amsterdam University Press

Explore the complex evolution of political thought in this scholarly work from Amsterdam University Press. This book examines the intellectual journeys of Bertrand de Jouvenel and Alfred Fabre-Luce, two influential French journalists and writers. Between 1930 and the mid-1950s, these thinkers navigated a changing political landscape, moving between liberalism, fascism, and Europeanism. Author Daniel Knegt provides a fresh perspective on how internationalist currents shaped these ideologies. The research highlights how a desire for a united Europe acted as a primary driver for these ideological shifts. By looking at the connection between fascism and internationalist thought, this study fills a gap in current historical research. It is an essential read for students and researchers interested in the history of European political movements and the origins of European integration.
