CasaPound Italy: The Sui Generis Fascists of the New Millennium

Related topic:

Ideologies and Conspiracy Narratives

Description:

This report analyses CasaPound Italia as a contemporary far-right movement that reinterprets fascist ideology within a modern populist framework. It explores the group’s ideological foundations, organizational structure, and activism strategies, including its use of social initiatives, cultural engagement, and strategic communication to normalize extremist narratives and broaden its appeal. It provides valuable background knowledge for identifying emerging threats, recognizing early-stage radicalisation dynamics, and designing informed prevention and resilience-building strategies within PCVE frameworks.
