Sound familier? Robert O. Paxton. 2005. The Anatomy of Fascism (NY: Vintage). 218: "Fascism may be defined as a form of political behaviour marked by obsessive preoccupation with community decline, humiliation, or victimhood and by compensatory cults of unity, energy, and purity, in which a mass-based party of committed nationalism militants, working in uneasy but effective collaboration with traditional elites, abandons democratic liberties and pursues with redemptive violence and without ethical or legal restraints goals of internal cleansing and external expansion." -- Michael Perelman Economics Department California State University Chico, CA 95929
