    Hitlerism, Trumpism, Netanyahuism, Le Penism, Macronism

    A comparative and expressionist approach

    rCa

    However, Western societies no longer resemble what they were in the 1930s. They have aged, become consumerist and service-oriented, women are emancipated, and personal development has replaced partisan allegiance.
    How does this compare with the societies of the 1930s: young, frugal, industrial, working class, male-dominated, party-affiliated? It is this socio-historical distance that had led me to consider at first, until now,
    the parallel between the rCyfar rightrCO of the present and that of the past to be invalid. But political doctrines exist, today as yesterday, and we cannot simply postulate the impossibility, for example, of a Nazism of the elderly, a consumer Francoism, an emancipated women fascism or a Croix-de-
    Feu LGBTism.

    rCa

    This will be an impressionistic approach, _without any claim to_ _exhaustiveness or even coherence, whose aim is to open up avenues for_ _thought, not to draw conclusions_. I am exaggerating features and colours
    to place the concepts in relation to each other. I am deliberately exaggerating to catch up with or even anticipate the acceleration of
    history. An expressionist approach might be a more appropriate metaphor.

    rCa

    A common feature of Western rCypopulismsrCO is, of course, their rejection of immigration: Reform UK, the Sverigedemokraterna (Sweden Democrats), the
    AfD, Viktor Orban in Hungary, Law and Justice in Poland, Giorgia Meloni in Italy, like Trump or Le Pen, pass the test of this common denominator. Is
    this enough to define them as far-right, in the same way that Nazism and fascism were far-right? I donrCOt think so. There is a crucial difference between todayrCOs populism and the Hitlerian or Mussolinian far right:
    Nazism and fascism were expansionist, with the aim of projecting the power
    of the German (Aryan) or Italian (Roman) people outwards. They were aggressive, nationalist and conquering. They relied on mass parties. It is hard to imagine todayrCOs populists organising Nuremberg-style parades. The RNrCOs salami and wine aperitif parties are certainly anti-Muslim, but still less impressive than HitlerrCOs war ceremonies. From Nuremberg to H|-nin- Beaumont? Really?
