Contents:

Intellectual Fascism? -- Between Immunity and Pan-Fascism -- New Perspectives -- Europeanism, Fascism and Neoliberalism -- 1. `En Faisant l'Europe': Internationalism and the Fascist Drift -- `La Nouvelle Generation Europeenne': Generational Politics in 1920s France -- Reconciliation with Germany at All Costs? -- Metaphysical Europeanism -- 2. Planning, Fascism and the State: 1930-1939 -- From Liberalism to `l'Economie Dirigee' -- A National and Social Revolution -- Party Intellectuals at the Service of Fascism -- 3. Facing a Fascist Europe: 1939-1943 -- Defeat and Readjustment -- Tracing the Origins of Defeat -- `On the Threshold of a New World' -- New Rulers, Old Acquaintances -- Collaboration and Attentisme -- 4. A European Revolution?: Liberation and the Post-War Extreme Right -- Liberation and Persecution -- Exile and Exclusion -- `Beyond Nazism': Monarchism and the Heritage of Fascism -- Reinventing the Extreme Right -- Europeanism, Federalism and the Reconfiguration of the Extreme Right -- 5. Europeanism, Neoliberalism and the Cold War -- On Private Life and Facial Hair -- On Power: Pessimism, Aristocracy and the Distrust of Democracy -- A Mountain in Switzerland: Neoliberalism and the Mont Pelerin Society -- `This General Feeling of Open Conspiracy'.

Summary: Despite the recent rise in studies that approach fascism as a transnational phenomenon, the links between fascism and internationalist intellectual currents have only received scant attention. This book explores the political thought of Bertrand de Jouvenel and Alfred Fabre-Luce, two French intellectuals, journalists and political writers who, from 1930 to the mid-1950s, moved between liberalism, fascism and Europeanism. Daniel Knegt argues that their longing for a united Europe was the driving force behind this ideological transformation-and that we can see in their thought the earliest stages of what would become neoliberalism.
