Paraskevas Matalas “Nationalism and fascism in Greece at the beginning of the twentieth century”
As a continuation of my research on nationalism as a global phenomenon and its occurrences in Greece in the early 20th century, I want to present here some reflections from an ongoing research on the first versions of “fascism” in Greece, i.e., roughly, in the 1920s. And to discuss around the use of the terms “nationalism” and “fascism”, both by the people from that time and by us today.
Σε συνέχεια της έρευνάς μου για τον εθνικισμό ως ένα διεθνές φαινόμενο και για την παρουσία του στην Ελλάδα των αρχών του 20 αιώνα, θέλω να παρουσιάσω εδώ ορισμένες σκέψεις από μια εν εξελίξει έρευνα για τις πρώτες εμφανίσεις εκδοχών του φασισμού στην Ελλάδα, δηλαδή, χοντρικά, κατά την δεκαετία του 1920. Και να συζητήσουμε γύρω από τη σημασία της χρήσης των όρων «εθνικισμός» και «φασισμός», τόσο από τους ανθρώπους της εποχής όσο και από εμάς σήμερα.
