Candide (1924-1944)
''Candide'' was a French weekly newspaper aligned with the far-right Maurrassian nationalist and antisemitic movements. It was published between 1924 and 1944. The name ''Candide'' was adopted in 1924 by a weekly launched by the Arthème Fayard publishing house. This newspaper was one of the main political and literary weeklies of the Interwar period, inspiring similar publications like '' Gringoire'' on the far-right and '' Vendredi'' and ''Marianne'' on the left. ''Candide'' itself was rooted in the Charles Maurras's Integral nationalism. Key figures such as Pierre Gaxotte, the personal secretary to Charles Maurras, served on its editorial board until 1940. Other contributors included Lucien Dubech as a drama critic, Dominique Sordet for music, Maurice Pefferkorn for sports, and Abel Manouvriez for legal reporting, all of whom held similar roles at ''L'Action française''. Rising Maurrassian talents such as Lucien Rebatet and Robert Brasillach also contributed to ''Candide''. ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Je Suis Partout
''Je suis partout'' (, lit. ''I am everywhere'') was a French newspaper founded by , first published on 29 November 1930. It was placed under the direction of Pierre Gaxotte until 1939. Journalists of the paper included Lucien Rebatet, , the illustrator Ralph Soupault, and the Belgian correspondent Pierre Daye. Interwar In its very beginning, ''Je suis partout'' was centered on covering international topics, without displaying extremism, antisemitism, or even a consistently right-wing approach. However, the group of editors was heavily influenced by the ideas of Charles Maurras and the integralist Action française, and the ideology quickly spilled into the editorial content, as the more moderate journalists quit in protest. The paper became a staple of anti-parliamentarianism, nationalism, and criticism of "decadent" Third Republic institutions and culture, becoming close to fascist movements of the era, French and foreign alike. It clearly supported Benito Mussolini as ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
6 February 1934 Crisis
The 6 February 1934 crisis (also known as the Veterans' Riot) was an anti-parliamentarist street demonstration in Paris, organized by multiple far-right leagues that culminated in a riot on the Place de la Concorde, near the building used for the French National Assembly. The police shot and killed 17 people, nine of whom were far-right protesters. It was one of the major political crises during the Third Republic (1870–1940). Leftist Frenchmen claimed it was an attempt to organize a fascist ''coup d'état''. According to historian Joel Colton, "The consensus among scholars is that there was no concerted or unified design to seize power and that the leagues lacked the coherence, unity, or leadership to accomplish such an end." As a result of the actions of that day, several anti-fascist organizations were created, such as the '' Comité de vigilance des intellectuels antifascistes'', in an attempt to thwart fascism in France. After World War II, several historians, among the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Italian Fascism
Italian fascism (), also called classical fascism and Fascism, is the original fascist ideology, which Giovanni Gentile and Benito Mussolini developed in Italy. The ideology of Italian fascism is associated with a series of political parties led by Mussolini: the National Fascist Party (PNF), which governed the Kingdom of Italy from 1922 until 1943, and the Republican Fascist Party (PFR), which governed the Italian Social Republic from 1943 to 1945. Italian fascism also is associated with the post–war Italian Social Movement (MSI) and later Italian Neo-fascism, neo-fascist political organisations. Italian fascism originated from ideological combinations of ultranationalism and Italian nationalism, national syndicalism and revolutionary nationalism, and from the militarism of Italian irredentism to regain "lost overseas territories of Italy" deemed necessary to restore Italian nationalist pride.Aristotle A.

Robert Brasillach
Robert Brasillach (; 31 March 1909 – 6 February 1945) was a French author and journalist. He was the editor of '' Je suis partout'', a nationalist newspaper which advocated fascist movements and supported Jacques Doriot. After the liberation of France in 1944, he was executed following a trial and Charles de Gaulle's express refusal to grant him a pardon.

The execution remains a subject of some controversy, because Brasillach was executed for "intellectual crimes", rather than military or political actions.
