Lectures On Fascism

This book consists of lectures of eminent Italian and world communist leader, Togliatti, gave to workers from Italy who in 1935, were attending a party school in Moscow. The lectures clearly delineate the class nature of fascism and the ideological and organizational tools it uses to fashion its mass social base. Togliatti makes a profound analysis of the character of this base, the special problems it posed for the democratic and communist forces in Italy, and he suggests the methods for political work under the different circumstances of fascist rule. Palmiro Togliatti was an Italian politican and leader of the Italian Communist Party from 1927 until his death.
