Italian Fascism is often ''incorrectly'' thought of as the "original" Fascism, mostly due to propaganda, but partially due to it being the first connected to [[WWAC]], and that Mussolini [[coined the term]]. This brand of fascism was based on [[ancient Rome]] and developed by [[Mussolini|Benito Mussolini]] and [[Giovanni Gentile]], among others, and also based on the writings of [[Plato]] and [[George Sorel]].

Modern Fascism

Italian Fascism is often incorrectly thought of as the "original" Fascism, mostly due to propaganda, but partially due to it being the first connected to WWAC, and that Mussolini coined the term. This brand of fascismwas based on ancient Rome and developed by Benito Mussolini and Giovanni Gentile, among others, and also based on the writings of Plato and George Sorel. It became the blueprint for all of modern fascism, includ8ng National Socialism.It was the ideology of several organizations and parties associated with Benito Mussolini, notably the National Fascist Party that governed Italy from 1922 - when he was granted the title of Prime Minister - following the March on Rome. It was also the ideology of the subsequent Italian Social Republic and the previous Fasci di Combattimento.

Claims regarding Italianfascismare controversial and vary widely and may be problematic for reasons such as Allied psychological warfare and the associations with National Socialist Germany. Moreover, its operations were subject to internal opposition, mainly from the Monarchy and the Bourgeoisie, leading to confusion regarding its true theoretical basis.

Italian Fascist poster from the 1920s.
Hundreds of Roman salutes (saluti romani) on 7 January 2024 in Rome in front of the former MSI headquarters commemorating three young patriots of the Youth Front murdered there in January 1978[1] during the "Ambush in Acca Larenzia": Franco Bigonzetti, Francesco Ciavatta and Stefano Recchioni. Vincenzo Segneri was wounded, but survived.[2]

Even some politically correct sources state that

"It should be noted that there is widespread disagreement among commentators about whether Italian Fascism is properly classified as a totalitarian system. Hannah Arendt and George Kennan thought otherwise. Mussolini's regime, on such accounts, is best comprehended as an extreme form of dictatorship or, according to Juan Linz, a species of "authoritarianism." Though preeminent, it shared power with other collective actors such as the monarchy, the military, and the Catholic Church [...] Mussolini was domestically ousted in a way that indicates a far more precarious grip on power than either Hitler or Stalin evinced." and "Although the term itself was first applied by Mussolini to his fascist state, his rule of Italy—in retrospect, and in comparison with its National Socialist German and Communist Russian contemporaries—is not usually described as totalitarian. Nor does the term apply to other fascist or dictatorial regimes, such as those of Horthy in Hungary, Pilsudski in Poland, Franco in Spain, Salazar in Portugal, and Peron in Argentina."[3]
