SUMMARY:Virtual Exhibition Talk: "The Mussolini of the North": A Transnational Look at Finnish Interwar Fascism
DESCRIPTION:The politician\, farmer Vihtori Kosola poses for the sculptor Mauno Oittinen\, 1930. Photographed by Pietinen\, Inventory ID: HK19670603:100\, Collection of Historical Images\, Finnish Heritage Agency. \nPart of the Library’s This Fascist Life: Radical Right Movements in Interwar Europe event series. \nSimilar to most other European fascist movements\, the core of Finnish interwar fascism consisted of right-wing war veterans. As the experiences of the 1918 Finnish Civil War played a crucial role in their radicalisation\, many previous studies have focused on the domestic Finnish perspective to explain the phenomenon. Instead\, in this lecture\, Marja Jalava will follow the transnational turn within the broader field of fascist studies by focusing on the Lapua Movement and the Patriotic People’s Movement as Finnish manifestations of a European-wide\, transnational mobilisation. \nAbout the speaker: \nProfessor Marja Jalava gain her PhD in 2005 in Finnish and Nordic History at the University of Helsinki. She works currently as Professor in Cultural History at the School of History\, Culture and Arts Studies at the University of Turku. Her research interests lie in the modern history of Finland and other Nordic countries. Among her long-term interests is the history of nationalism and cultural radicalism. \nEvent guidelines: \n1.

SUMMARY:Exhibition Lecture: Studying Fascist Movements Across Interwar Europe
DESCRIPTION:Hlinka Guard meeting in Bzovík\, 4 March 1939. \nPart of the This Fascist Life exhibition event series. \nCalling someone a fascist during the interwar period meant first and foremost associating them with movements\, leaders\, or regimes that embraced that name\, or which other people commonly thought were fascist. Labels like ‘fascist’ were useful for activists seeking funding or alliances abroad\, for opponents trying to identify their enemies as fifth columnists\, or as a shorthand way to highlight key attributes of a movement. But in the day-to-day bustle of politics those groups generally considered as fascist often had more in common with right-wing or ultra-nationalist parties in their own countries than with comparable groups abroad. Activists and hostile observers alike acknowledged that certain commonalities animated movements and regimes\, but they were often remarkably ambivalent about whether particular movements were or were not ‘fascist’. \nIn this talk\, Roland Clark and Tim Grady approach the word ‘fascism’ as an empty signifier that was defined by its relationships rather than its content\, grounding it in the transnational\, pan-European context within which it emerged. By drawing together examples of what people meant by fascism from a variety of countries across the continent\, we offer a promising new way of thinking about what fascism was in interwar Europe. \nAbout the speakers: \nRoland Clark is Senior Lecturer in Modern European History at the University of Liverpool and the Principal Investigator on the European Fascist Movements 1919-1941 project and co-curator of the This Fascist Life exhibition. He is a Senior Fellow with the Centre for Analysis of the Radical Right and President of the Society for Romanian Studies and the author of Holy Legionary Youth: Fascist Activism in Interwar Romania (2015). \nTim Grady is Professor of History at the University of Chester and the Co-Investigator on the European Fascist Movements 1919-1941 project and co-curator of the This Fascist Life exhibition. He is the author of A Deadly Legacy: German Jews and the Great War (2017) and The German-Jewish Soldiers of the First World War in History and Memory (2011).
