| Summary: | The focal point of this paper is to analyze the relation of modern-day
Serbian neo-Nazis toward capitalism. Bearing in mind the context and
conditions of emerging fascism in Europe of the twentieth century, apart from
the fact that it exposes the essence of the basic theme, this research may
have a perspective scientific and practical significance. Namely, the fascism
is only one of the many forms of capitalism rescue in periods of crisis. At
the time when fascism came into the European scene, ruling bourgeoisie was
threatened by a growing labor movement, by blocked possibilities of expansion
of capital, and by crisis of overproduction which is, due to its essential
irrationality and lack of plan, specific only for capitalism. Today, in the
case of a renewed national homogenization of capital, which is risky to
predict after a crisis that happened back in 2008, it is possible that
resurgence of fascist and Nazi forms of advocacy of transformation of
capitalism in crisis could happen. The three most significant neo-Nazi
organizations in Serbia today are Srbski Obraz, Nacionalni stroj and Srbska
akcija. The injunction of the first two organizations and the illegal
character of the Nazi organization prevent face to face data collection,
which is why the Internet is used as a primary source of information - web
portals, blogs, forums and social networks. |
