Dr. Michael Parenti | The Functions of Fascism | Real History

Dr. Michael Parenti discusses fascism. Parenti says that fascism is a new order and consciousness that served the same old power structure and promised to solve the ills of the many while protecting the interests of the few. He answers in detail who financed the Fascist parties and what services the fascists rendered in return. Many of the measures enacted by fascists were frighteningly similar to those enacted today: They include the privatization of state-owned enterprises, reduction of corporate taxes and inheritance taxes, defeat of unions, and the suspension of civil liberties. Parenti, a Ph.D. in political science from Yale University, has taught at several universities, colleges, and other institutions. He is the author of twenty books and many more articles. His works have been translated into at least seventeen languages. Recorded 11/30/90 as a part of his "Real History" series.
