Abstract

From Telesio Interlandi to Julius Evola, fascist anti-Semitism revealed an almost non existent relationship with the political culture of the French anti-Semitism. Exponents of the French anti-Semitism of the late nineteenth century, starting with Drumont, remained unknown to the most important theorists of fascist racism. This stance  is due to different reasons. Meanwhile, French anti-Semitism, from Drumont to Maurras, had a strong anti-German characterization. This characterization was in contrast to fascist pro-German policy. Moreover, fascist anti-Semitism was one of the most politically radical voices of the territorial expansionism of the regime, claiming colonies (Tunisia) and French territories (Corsica). It started mainly from 1939, with anthropological and racial justifications. The only theorist of French anti-Semitism to find space in the political journalism of the regime  was Georges Montandon, exponent of the pro-Nazi collaborationism. However, Montandon's thesis didn't find space in the fascist debate on race, because his racism, with a strong ideological inclination, was considered to be in contrast to the " spiritual racism" of the regime.

Keywords: Fascist antisemitism; Territorial expansionism; Antisemitic criticism of democracy; Georges Montandon.
