Beskrivning
The increasing radicalization of political life in most countries in Europe lends special relevance to studies of the antifascist legacies on the continent. This insightful collection of essays is an in-depth review of antifascism in Slovenia, setting it in the context of related movements elsewhere in Europe. The period treated by the 19 essays comprises the interwar period, World War Two, and the post-war decades. The comparative and transnational perspectives advanced by the volume change our understanding of antifascism. The essays deal with the right-wing but also left-wing instrumentalization of antifascism, with a particular focus on the communist and post-communist periods. The authors point out that antifascism comes in various strains, whether inspired by liberalism, social democracy, communism, monarchism, anarchism, or even Christian conservatism. The contributors bring to light several overlooked antifascist actors, campaigns, and organisations, mostly in Slovenia and the Adriatic area.

Recensioner i media

"In this volume, the editors have assembled a wide array of contributions covering the complex history of antifascism, fascism, and anti-anti-fascism in Italy, Denmark, Germany, Finland, Slovakia and, last but not least, Slovenia. The ongoing war in Europe, and its alleged goal of fighting Ukrainian ‘nazism’, is proof of how important such knowledge and scholarship is for historians and non-historians alike."https://www.prio.org/journals/jpr/booknotes/379
