Reviews

"""This is a book of rare breadth and ambition, resting on elaborate methodological foundations and engaging fluently with comparisons across a wide spectrum of national case studies. Yet Martins’s arguments remain both lucid and attentive to differences, never losing sight of conceptual shifts and interlinkages. As an exercise in comparative fascism studies, this book injects fresh relevance to the analysis of fascist charismatic leaders and their ideas. As a reflection on the intellectual components of fascism, it serves as a poignant reminder of why we need to take generic fascist ideology ever more seriously."" Aristotle Kallis, Keele University, UK ""This is an excellent and timely book about the ideology of European fascist leaders. Applying the conceptual morphological approach of Michael Freeden to the analysis of fascist ideology, this path-breaking work is an important contribution to the comparative study of authoritarian politics."" António Costa Pinto, University of Lisbon, Portugal"
