- catalog abstract ""Giovanni Gentile (1875-1944) was the major theorist of Italian Fascism, supplying its justification and rationale as a developmental form of dictatorship for status-deprived nations languishing on the margins of the Great Powers. Gentile's "actualism" (as his philosophy came to be called) absorbed many intellectual currents of the early twentieth century including nationalism, syndicalism, and futurism. He called the individual to an idealistic ethic of obedience, work, self-sacrifice, and national community in a dynamic rebellion against the perceived impostures of imperialism. "This volume makes available some of his more significant writings produced shortly before and after the Fascist accession to power in Italy. Although the conditions that gave rise to Gentile's thought have largely disappeared from Europe, his work remains instructive and may have a parallel in the kind of anti-democratic system that is likely to reemerge in the new century. This volume will be of interest to intellectual and cultural historians, philosophers, and political scientists."--Jacket.".
