Reviews

In this impressive work of scholarship A. James Gregor shows that the totalitarian twins, communism and fascism, are not at all what they claim to be--secular and atheistic ideologies--but thinly disguised 'political religions' arising from their common source in the militant intellectual milieu that Marxism engendered. --Carl Linden, Emeritus, The George Washington University


A. James Gregor has, for half a century, been one of the major makers and shapers of the discipline of comparative fascism . . . Gregor has produced an engaging, thoughtful, and very readable interpretation of the emergence and rise of Marxism, Leninism, fascism, Nazism, Maoism, and the ideology of the Khmer Rouge . . . Rich in detail, this book can be wholeheartedly recommended to anybody interested in the history of modern radically anti-liberal thought, and those ideologies that informed human history's most murderous regimes. --Andreas Umland, American Historical Review
