This essay examines the centrality of the ‘new man’ theme in the fascist and pro-fascist movement and regime of the interwar period. In particular, it emphasizes the link between the rapid and massive social and economic changes affecting Europe since the end of the 1800s and the attempt to provide a policy answer to the fear of moral decadence and physical degeneration, noting that these same transformations gave birth to large sectors of public opinion.

Abstract

This essay examines the centrality of the ‘new man’ theme in the fascist and pro-fascist movement and regime of the interwar period. In particular, it emphasizes the link between the rapid and massive social and economic changes affecting Europe since the end of the 1800s and the attempt to provide a policy answer to the fear of moral decadence and physical degeneration, noting that these same transformations gave birth to large sectors of public opinion.
