¿Puede la historia escribirse sin historiadores? En un mundo donde la inteligencia artificial genera imágenes, textos y recreaciones del pasado en segundos, la pregunta ya no es retórica. El problema es urgente👇
1/ @pablo1981.bsky.social .bsky.social (@fasosmaastricht.bsky.social) and @carlosdomper.bsky.social sdomper.bsky.social (@unizar.es) are happy to announce our special issue in Patterns of Prejudice:
The legacies of fascism in the 20th Century. An Intergenerational approach.
From a personal perspective, what a pleasure it has been to work with @carlosdomper.bsky.social during the past years in this special issue. Not many colleagues as brilliant and generous as him. We did it 💪!
27/ 📝 Conclusions – Generations and the legacies of fascism by @pablo1981.bsky.social and @carlosdomper.bsky.social
The conclusions reflect on how studying generations helps us understand the persistence and transformation of fascist ideas after 1945.
1/ @pablo1981.bsky.social (@fasosmaastricht.bsky.social) and @carlosdomper.bsky.social (@unizar.es) are very happy to announce our special issue in Patterns of Prejudice ( @pop-jrnl.bsky.social):
The legacies of fascism in the 20th Century. An Intergenerational approach.
30/ We call for comparative approaches that connect different national cases and periods, rather than treating fascist afterlives as isolated phenomena.
Only this way can we fully understand their impact on contemporary politics.
29/ The concept of generation allows us to see how memories, symbols and narratives were transmitted, contested or reinvented across decades.
It highlights both continuities and critical breaks in fascist legacies.
28/ We argue that fascism did not end definitively in 1945.
Many militants reimagined their ideology and adapted it to new contexts, while younger generations inherited myths and resentments that shaped neofascist projects.
27/ 📝 Conclusions – Generations and the legacies of fascism by @pablo1981.bsky.social and @carlosdomper.bsky.social
The conclusions reflect on how studying generations helps us understand the persistence and transformation of fascist ideas after 1945.
26/ The study reveals that these efforts created tensions with conservative sectors of the regime.
At the same time, they helped maintain a distinct Falangist identity that would shape memory and self-perception for decades.
25/ Canales shows that young university Falangists sought to modernize the movement’s language and adapt it to the 1960s, while still claiming loyalty to the founding myths of the Civil War.
24/Political education for post-war generations: The vocation, reorganization and memory of Spanish university Falangism (1956–1965) by @canales-ciudad.bsky.social explores how Falangist student organizations tried to renew their ideology and identity through generational dialogue.
23/ The study highlights how younger militants embraced counter-culture, white power music and “national revolutionary” ideas.
This generational shift transformed the British extreme right’s strategies, networks and cultural identity.
22/ Macklin shows that young activists born after WWII increasingly clashed with the older leadership over ideology, tactics and culture.
These conflicts led to the creation of the Young National Front in 1977 as a separate youth wing.
21/ 🇬🇧 Inter-generational conflict and the transformation of the British extreme right by @grahammacklin.bsky.social (@crexuio.bsky.social) analyses how generational tensions shaped the British National Front in the 1970s, when the far right tried to reinvent itself amid electoral failures.
20/ The study reveals that intergenerational dynamics—admiration, resentment, loyalty—played a crucial role in sustaining neofascist culture.
In some cases, this legacy drove young militants to embrace violent activism as a form of continuity and revenge.
19/ Faust shows that many young activists grew up in households where fathers were fascist veterans portrayed as heroes and victims.
These family narratives created strong emotional bonds and made it difficult to critically question their parents’ past.
This article examines how family legacies shaped the radicalization of young neofascists during Italy’s Years of Lead, a period of intense political violence in the 1970s.
18/ 🇮🇹 Post-war Fascism in Italy from an Intergenerational Perspective: The Legacy of Fascist Veterans for the Generation of Fascist Activists during the Years of Lead by Lene Faust (@unibe.ch)
17/ The study demonstrates how rituals and anniversaries helped transmit symbols and legitimacy from veterans to a new generation.
By adapting the narrative, neofascists reframed defeat as a source of identity and moral authority in republican Italy.
16/ Priorelli shows that the “old” Blackshirts, who had marched in 1922, framed the date as an epic national rebirth.
After 1945, younger MSI activists reinvented the celebration to claim continuity with fascism, despite the fall of the regime and the rise of democracy.
15/ 🇮🇹 Celebrating the March on Rome over time (1920s–1960s) by Giorgia Priorelli (@univgirona.bsky.social)
This article explores how the anniversary of the March on Rome became a central ritual for Italian fascism and neofascism, shaping collective memory across two generations of militants.
14/ The article draws on extensive archival research from Argentina, Croatia and Serbia, as well as interviews with diaspora members.
It reveals how memory and identity were actively constructed and sustained over decades.
13/ Zidek shows that this narrative was transmitted almost unchanged across generations.
Each cohort adapted it slightly to their context, but the core story of victimhood and heroism remained stable.
