Abstract
The terrible bizarreness of the beliefs and behaviour of fascists seems to cry out for an analysis rooted in individual psychology. But, argues the author, this is both to ignore the strength of fascism's ideology and ideas, particularly the appeal to fascists of a theory of world fewish conspiracy, and to let those complicit with fascist regimes off the hook.Keywords
