A rigorous work of European political history, Native Fascism in the Successor States: 1918-1945 presents a scholarly examination of the homegrown fascist movements that emerged across Central and Eastern Europe in the turbulent interwar period. Rather than treating fascism as a purely imported ideology, the collection argues that the successor states born from the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian and Ottoman empires cultivated their own distinct brands of ultranationalism, rooted in local ethnic tensions, economic instability, and political fragmentation. Contributors detail the rise of movements in countries such as Hungary, Romania, Yugoslavia, Bulgaria, and Czechoslovakia, illustrating how regional grievances and nationalist aspirations shaped ideologies that were simultaneously unique and aligned with broader European fascist trends. The tone is measured and academic, with each essay offering precise historical analysis that challenges oversimplified narratives about fascism's origins and spread. Edited by Peter F. Sugar, this essential volume remains an authoritative reference for scholars seeking to understand the complex political landscape of interwar Eastern Europe.
