In fact, in what way do any fascist policies fall in line with right wing ideology? |
According to A history of Nazi Germany: 1919-1945. 2nd edition by Joseph Bendersky, Nazism was established on the accusation that both capitalism and communism were geared towards Jewish interests. Therefore, the Third Position was established with a Notionalist view in mind, the abolition of the Jews and the establishment of an Aryan master race. The economic views may have been more socialist, but the primary agenda of Fascism and Nazism was Nationalism interests, viewed as a far-right agenda.
"Nazism presented itself as politically syncretic, incorporating policies, tactics and philosophies from right- and left-wing ideologies, though a majority of scholars hold it to be a far right form of politics"
