Branco Milanovic:

"Fascism as an ideology implies

(i) exclusivist nationalism,

(ii) glorification of the leader,

(iii) emphasis on the power of the state as opposed to private individuals and the private sector,

(iv) rejection of the multi-party system,

(v) corporatist rule,

(vi) replacement of the class structure of society with unitary nationalism, and

(vii) quasi religious adulation of the Party, the state and the leader."
