Know about the book -

The Nature of Fascism(English, Electronic book text, Griffin Roger) is written by Griffin Roger and published by Taylor & Francis Ltd. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 1136145885 (ISBN 10) and 9781136145889 (ISBN 13).

The Nature of Fascism draws on the history of ideas as well as on political, social and psychological theory to produce a synthesis of ideas and approaches that will be invaluable for students. Roger Griffin locates the driving force of fascism in a distinctive form of utopian myth, that of the regenerated national community, destined to rise up from the ashes of a decadent society. He lays bare the structural affinity that relates fascism not only to Nazism, but to the many failed fascist movements that surfaced in inter-war Europe and elsewhere, and traces the unabated proliferation of virulent (but thus far successfully marginalized) fascist activism since 1945.
