    • QUOTE: ... Fascism is associated most closely with Europe between the world wars, when movements bearing this name took power in Italy and Germany and wreaked havoc in many other European countries. Although fascists differed from country to country, they shared a virulent opposition to democracy and liberalism, as well as a deep suspicion of capitalism. They also believed that the nation — often defined in religious or racial terms — represented the most important source of identity for all true citizens. And so they promised a revolution that would replace liberal democracy with a new type of political order devoted to nurturing a unified and purified nation under the guidance of a powerful leader. ...

      ... Right-wing populism — indeed, populism of any kind — is a symptom of democracy in trouble; fascism and other revolutionary movements are the consequence of democracy in crisis.
