Kotkin on Russia ‘ s proto – fascist movement (called the Union of the Russian people) of the early XXTH century:
The Union’s members and leaders… we’re antiliberal, anti capitalist, and anti – semitic. They emphasized the uniqueness of Russia ‘ s historical trajectory, rejected Europe as a model, preached the need for Orthodox primacy… and demanded restoration of Russia ‘ s traditions. .. Union members held that the autocrat alone must rule (99).
Remind you of anyone?
