Professor Gregor is one of the rare specialists in Italian fascism to have made a truly original contribution to the study of the subject. His books always provide food for thought and are challenging, intelligent, clear and well written. -- Zeev Sternhell, Hebrew University, Jerusalem This is the only account in either English or Italian of the formation of Italian Fascist thought over a period of forty years. Gregor is the leading specialist in this area in the English-speaking world. His work is strikingly original. -- Stanley Payne, University of Wisconsin, Madison
A. James Gregor is Professor of Political Science at the University of California, Berkeley. He is the author of "Italian Fascism and Developmental Dictatorship" and "The Fascist Persuasion in Radical Politics" (Princeton), and "The Faces of Janus: Marxism and Fascism in the Twentieth Century" (Yale). He has been awarded the title "Knight of the Order of Merit of the Republic" by the Italian government for his publications on the history of Italy.
The book succeeds admirably in convincing the reader that, far from being a doctrine based on irrationalism and violence, fascism's foundations are very sophisticated intellectual constructs. -- Paul Petzschmann Political Theory
