Can /lit/ recommend me some good books on Fascism?
I want a book that deals exactly with what the ideology was and how it was put into action. Pls no agenda-driven drivel.

and here comes proto fascism
Ernst Nolte's Three Faces of Fascism is the gold standard. Don't look anywhere else OP.
I know a bit french so I'll check the Frenchy ones, my problem with finding books on fascism is that I always incredibly polarized opinions on what it is. A sec ago I listened to Robert Paxton (who wrote Anatomy of Fascism in the first chart) and he likened Trump to fascism but saying that the fascists at least cared for the environment. You also have people like D'Souza who calls fascism "just noninternational socialism".

fun fact: it was one of Lenin's favs according to his former assistants
A James Gregor's "Mussolini's Intellectuals" is hands down the best book out there on this topic
