Thank your linking to this. Way more nuanced and interesting than the meme.
Also I hate this font.
It’s also taken many forms since Mussolini’s reign. Kershaw famously wrote that “trying to define fascism is like trying to nail jelly to the wall.”
Nothing quite like a homemade peanut butter and Jell-o sandwich.
just mix the peanut butter into the Jell-o when you add the broccoli and cauliflower
The description presented for corporatism is partial in this article. Corporatism doesn't prevent free market. In fact it doesn't care about free market. It's an organisation for the people of the field to organise themselves.
It's used since the middle ages at least. It is indeed often used by the central government to get some controle on the field (to prevent a technology from going in an enemy kingdom for example, at a time when patent didn't exist).
It is not free market in the sense that someone can't come into the business without the corporation allowance first. But many markets are just as bad anyway ; when companies have a monopoly or close enough from it, it's arguably even worse.
This feels like it's misunderstood corporatism and what corporation means in this context
Corporatism does not refer to a political system dominated by large business interests, even though the latter are commonly referred to as "corporations" in modern American vernacular and legal parlance; instead, the correct term for this theoretical system would be corporatocracy. Corporatism is not government corruption in politics or the use of bribery by corporate interest groups. The terms 'corporatocracy' and 'corporatism' are often confused due to their name and the use of corporations as organs of the state.
A fascist corporation can be defined as a governmental entity incorporating workers' and employers' syndicates affiliated with the same profession and sector, with the aim of overseeing production in a comprehensive manner. Theoretically, each trade union within this structure assumes the responsibility of advocating for the interests of its respective profession, particularly through the negotiation of labor agreements and similar measures. Fascists theorized that this method could result in harmony amongst social classes.
