Nazism, Fascism and the Working Class

Book • 1995
Timothy Mason's 'Nazism, Fascism and the Working Class' delves into the complex dynamics between political ideologies and labor movements in 20th-century Europe.

The collection of essays examines the social and economic conditions that facilitated the rise of Nazism and Fascism, focusing on how these movements appealed to or suppressed the working class.

Mason analyzes the strategies employed by these regimes to control labor, co-opt worker support, and dismantle existing trade unions.

The book provides insights into the modernization and neoliberalization tactics used during that period, which still resonate in contemporary discussions about labor and economic policy.

This seminal work offers a critical perspective on the intersection of politics, economics, and social class in understanding the trajectory of totalitarian regimes.
