> What made Italian fascism different from corporatism

In corporatism the nation has to help the companies while in fascism the companies have to help the nation.

This : In italian fascism, the state is above all and everything is made for the state. This is also the main difference with nazism : In nazism the state should serve the ideology while in italian fascism it's the ideology that should serve the state.

Could you elaborate? What ideology differences did they had?

They're not that similar at all. Compare the PNF with the French Social Party (a "pure" corporatist party) and you'll see the differences.

The term "corporatism" gets used in a lot of different ways, but it's not really related to "corporate" in the capitalist sense of a publicly traded business. Generally corporatism is the idea that different industries are organized into syndicates or corporate groups. So instead of having competing agricultural companies, or competing steel companies, the nation would have a unified agricultural syndicate or a steel syndicate. The relationship between these syndicates varies in different forms of government. But corporatism is a key part of fascism, not something separate from it. The Italian fascists were influenced early on by anarcho-syndicalist ideas, but they integrated them with a strong nationalist sentiment, and dropped the anarchism and egalitarianism in favor of a hierarchical totalitarian state.

Another way to think about it is that "corporate" means body, and it goes back to the old analogy from Hobbes (and much earlier) that a nation is a body composed of organs. In some ways fascist states have been the biggest manifestation of this idea

you have no clue what you guys are talking about. Corporatism has nothing to do with helping big business, read a book ffs. OP properly stated the definition in his post.

>>2507868
this is how it's used, don't get uppity

It's how it's used nowadays, but it was not used that way in the context of fascism/ rightwing ideology.
one of those anons came up with some glib aphorism under the assumption that corporatism is the same thing as helping corporate enterprises, which is a caricature at best. Clearly they shouldn't have waltzed in this thread pretending they know anything about mussolini or fascism. I don't mean to be harsh...
