Abstract
Recent studies of social attitudes suggest that an individual, in expressing prejudicial opinions and beliefs, is exposing aspects of a deep‐lying, self‐consistent mental economy. Ethnocentricism and politico‐economic conservatism are seemingly influenced by an underlying authoritarian attitude, which implies implicit antidemocratic trends and what have been termed pre‐Fascist leanings. Investigations of these so‐called Fascist attitudes have been carried out by Katz and Cantril (13), Edwards (6), and Stagner (22) with college students comprising the samples in most of these studies.Keywords
