Synthesizing decades of scholarship, it is the first book in any language to trace the full story of French fascism from the First World War to the modern National Front, via the interwar years, the Vichy regime and the collapse of the French Empire. Chris Millington unpicks why this extremist political phenomenon has, at times, found such fervent and widespread support among the French people.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book chronologically surveys fascism in France whilst contextualizing this within the broader European and colonial frameworks that are so significant to the subject.
