Internationalism
Fascist Internationalism
In Fascism, Internationalism is a political principle that advocates greater political or economic cooperation among states and nations, while retainig and preserving culture. Pacts and treaties between two counties is a good thing as long as both counties benefit and such cooperation does not blur the line between the two cultures. Internatio alism, to a fascist, is the exact opposite of globalism, the opposite of a one-world government, but instead a natural extention of nationalism.
Fascist Internationalism is characterized by opposition to isolationism; support for international institutions, and a cosmopolitan outlook that promotes and respects other cultures and customs, while closely guarding your own.
Fascist internationalism affects national-level innovation and inter national scientific and economic interaction. International cooperation at all levels; that is, at governmental, company, or individual innovator levels, opens up new horizons for innovation creation at global level and subsequently at the national level too as well as vice versa. In other words, research and innovation that is domestically generated can produce added value and more incentives at the international level, through international cooperation, and interaction channels such as treaties, agreements, and cooperation frameworks.
In a fascist view, increased international cooperation is traditionally contrasted by the logic of restricting the exposure of national scientific excellence within the boundaries of a specific country, in order to gain commercial advantages within the international marketplace. According to this view a fully globalized (and very Marxist) innovation production regime would threaten domestic research and innovation (as well as industrial excellence) with unfair competition and creation of disincentives.
Capitalist Internationalism
Capitalist Internationalism is alive and well. It is out-of-control, ruthless, and spreading like a cancer across the face of the globe. It is making us into a planet of whores. You cannot depart an international flight without entering a city crammed with fastfood restaurants, gas-stations, and supermarkets that you recognize from home. You may see remnants of whatever culture existed prior, but that culture is destroyed, at least in the big cities.
A Transnational/Multinational corporation copies its headquarters just like a virus and replicates the same business structure in each country. A Multinational Corporation (MNC) is distinguished from a Transnational corporation (TNC) by its structure. There are more than 60 000 MNCs with over 600 000 foreign affiliates. World trade takes place between MNC corporations and their subsidiary branches and affiliated companies. A transnational corporation (TNC) is a business that has its headquarters in one country and operations (e.g. resource extraction, manufacturing) and branches in many countries. Monsanto and Sony Corporation are examples of TNCs.
MNCs and TNCs have an over-powerful influence in countries that seek their jobs and investment, and these cultures inevitably end up being sacreficed at tbe altar of Capitalism.
In response to such criticisms, many companies claim efforts towards corporate social responsibility.
There is also a healthy debate about whether market-based incentives are enough to make companies act responsibly. Because Capitalism actually has the opposite effect.
For example, there are considered two firms as monopolists in their own market and isolated from competition by transportation costs and other tariff and non-tariff barriers. If these costs decrease, both are forced to competition; which will reduce their profits. The firms can maximize their joint income by a merger or acquisition which will lower the competition in the shared market. Due to the transformation of two separated companies into one MNE the pecuniary externalities are going to be internalized. However, this doesn't mean that there is an improvement for the society. In fact, the result to the locals is devastating.
Communist Internationalism
Communist Internationalism is better known as globalism.
They would say that "the international solidarity of workers and toiling people of different nations and races, as expressed in psychology, ideology, and politics. Expressing the position and interests that the working classes of different countries have in common, communist internationalism guarantees the correct way of solving the national and international tasks of the working class, assures agreement between the class content and the national form of social development, and constitutes the chief prerequisite for realizing national interests."
But thats just propaganda. Just as Fascist internationalism is an extention of fascism, and Capitalist internatio alism is an extension of Capitalism, so Communist internatio alism is an extentiin of Communism. It is globalism.
Engels wrote: “Since the position of all workers of all countries is the same,” wrote Engels, “since their interests are the same, since they have one and the same enemy, their struggle must be a joint one” [1]
Marx wrote: “Disregard of that bond of brotherhood which ought to exist between the workmen of different countries, and incite them to stand firmly by each other in all their struggles for emancipation, will be chastised by the common discomfiture of their incoherent efforts” [2]
Communist Internationalism first made itself apparent in the creation of the First International (1864–76), which, as Lenin said, “laid the foundation of an international organization of the workers for the preparation of their revolutionary attack on capital” [3]. The call for strengthening cooperation among the working classes of different countries in the struggle for their social emancipation was expressed in the slogan “Workers of the world, unite!”
This slogan, in many different languages was used in many different countries, to turn people against their own countrymen, and resulted in the World's War against Communism, which we all lost.
