==The New Fascism of the future==

According to study made by Robert O. Paxton, the new fascism of future does not need necessarily resemble the classical one. Some new movement that would get rid of free institutions for the purpose of applying the techniques of mass mobilization in order to unite all in favor of some 'discriminated  minority', would also have a new name and it would use new symbols. That would not make it any less dangerous. For example, while a new fascism would necessarily diabolize some enemy, both internal and external, the enemy would not necessarily be [[Jews]]. The new forms of ''updated fascism'' should be understood by comparing their ways of functioning, i.e. by looking at how they work, and not by superficial attention to external symbols.<ref name="Paxton">{{cite book |title=The Anatomy of Fascism |author=Robert O.

According to [[Italian]] writer and former [[communist]] Ignazio Silone, the new fascism will not say: "I am fascism", but it will instead say: "I am anti-fascism".<ref>{{cite book |title=Pfade der Neugier: Portraits |author=François Bondy |publisher=Benziger |year=1988 |pages=72 |isbn=9783545340787 |url=http://books.google.com/books?id=U9IsAQAAIAAJ |quote=《When der Faschismus wiederkehrt, wird er nicht sagen: "Ich bin der Faschismus".

As maintained by [[C.S. Lewis]] in his book ''The Abolition of Man'', there is a process going on apace among [[Communist]]s and [[Democrat]]s, no less than has been among [[Fascist]]s, which, if not checked, will abolish [[Man]]. At first, the methods may differ in brutality, but in the long run many, incl. mild-eyed scientists, amateur philosophers, and popular dramatists, have the same goal as the [[Nazi]] rulers of [[Germany]]. Traditional values are to be "debunked" and [[mankind]] to be cut into some fresh shape at the arbitrary will of some [[Interest group|few lucky people]] in one lucky generation who have learned how to do it. C.S. Lewis also identified the beginning of this process in phenomena like the language being affected by belief that humans can invent "ideologies" at pleasure, and the consequent treatment of mankind as mere specimens and preparations.<ref name="AbolitionOfMan">{{cite book |title=The Abolition of Man |author=C.S.
