What is the difference between democratic fascism and republican fascism?
In a Fascist state the supreme 'virtue' is obedience to the 'Great Dictator'. The whole political model is military, with the dictator barking out orders that are then passed down the chain of command.
In a democracy ordinary people elect others to make laws and run the country. There is public debate in a democracy, but the 'ideal' in a Fascist state is the blind obedience of zombies.
100% correct except:
1.) Fascist don't have to have a dictator.
2.) The political model isn't about the military at all.
3.) democracy as described by the above is representative democracy.
Further there is no "difference" as they are not in the same category.
Democracy is a governmental system while Fascism is a political party.
Fascists are authoritarian, strongly nationalistic and support corporate structure.
Currently Republican and Democrats are authoritarian, strongly nationalistic and support corporate structure.
Therefore in the United states you have two sub-parties of Fascism called Republicans and Democrats.
Fascism was political philosophy popular in the 1920s and 30s. Italy under Benito Mussolini and Spain under Francisco Franco were both fascist nations. There were many other countries with fascist governments and/or leaders, some were elected, some took power, but these two were the most famous.
For ease of understanding Nazi Germany under Adolf Hitler is often called a fascist nation, but it really was not, Nazism was its own brand of government.
What are advantages of fascist rule?
The advantages of fascism are maninly that it shortens political processes so that if a law of legislation needs to be passed that is for the best of the country, then it can be passed quickly and can be put into effect quickly, which can make the difference in improving a country.
Other advantages include dictators in a fascist reigime can (if they are uncorrupt) concern themselves fully with the best thing for their country, rather than trying to stay in power and not be voted out in the next election. A disadvantage of democracy that is solved by fascism is that in many times, what the voters want can be influenced by personal traits of potential leaders or just plain ineducation and this can have the result of a very bad descision made for a nation.
These only apply if the reigime is un corrupt and is truly benevolent
How was fascist dictatorship restrict civil liberties?

It is always easier for any Fascist State to blame the problems they find themselves in on others rather than to accept they have fouled up themselves.
Why did the Nazi leaders plan the Kristallnacht?
It all happened on November 9, 1938 when violence against Jews broke out across the Reich. It appeared to be unplanned anger over the assassination of a German official in Paris at the hands of a Jewish teenager but the fact was that German propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels and other Nazis carefully organized the pogroms. The morning after, German Jewish men were arrested for the crime of being Jewish and sent to concentration camps.

'Fascism' in a general sense usually includes Italian Fascism, Nazism, the Franco r�gime in Spain. (Some would include the Action Francaise and its successors in France).
Most of the ideas date from before WW1. Fascism is intensely nationalistic, with nationalism an a kind of substitute religion; it is racist, but not necessarily anti-Jewish. After all, it has a whole bundle of 'anti-' attitudes. It is opposed to democracy, to liberalism, to socialism and is rabidly, frantically, frenetically, hysterically anti-Communist. It's widely believed that it was above all fear of Bolshevism that encouraged the rise of large Fascist parties in some European countries in the 1920s and 1930s.
An important feature of Fascist r�gimes (which they share with Communism) is totalitarianism. That means:
Fascism, like a nasty playground bully, is vicious one moment, then full of self-pity the next. Fascist r�gimes in Europe in the interwar period whined and whinged like spoilt brats about their 'grievances', said again and again that they just wanted to put these things right peacefully, but the moment they thought it was safe to do so, they used force and savage brutality against people who weren't able to defend themselves.

Where was the Nazi trial conducted?
Nuremberg, Germany. That is why they are called "Nuremberg " trials.
Yes, he was. He firmly believed that the Russian peoples were superior to the other races and nationalities within the Soviet Union. Even Lenin resented Stalin's opinion in this regard. Stalin's racism was formalized in his policy of "Russification," whereby he intended to place only Russians in places of authority wherever possible.
How did fascist leaders increase their power?
Fascist totalitarian leaders did not gain power during WWII. They came to power before the war. It was largely their actions once in power that resulted in that war.
Fascism started after the 1st world war and it originated in Europe It originated in Italy with Benito Mussolini who was expelled from the Socialists and decided to form his own movement called the fascismo in 1919. The name derived from the Italian 'fascio' which means 'bundle' and thus the group was born. It didn't become the Fascist Party until just before the fascists came to power in the March on Rome in Oct 1922. Fascism came about mostly as a reaction from the elites for a strong govt that would instil law and order, something which the incumbent Giolitti govt was not doing. The Italian parliament had proportional representation and so in order to govern, parties had to form coalitions. This resulted in weak, ineffectual govts. In truth, fascism had a wide appeal to both the moderates who wanted law and order and governance and the radicals who were heavily attracted to the violent, ultranationalistic nature of fascism.
Is socialism the same as fascism?
To a small extent yes;
On one hand you have great fear of communism generated by the 1916 Russian revolution.
Take America during this period;
The journalist Kenneth Roberts wrote that "social democracy gives off a distinct sour Bolshevik odour". He was part of the 100% Americanism movement that preached sermons and lectured at university although hit only spread its message to a few, the fact that this fear was here illustrates that many of the Super capitalists in America were tending towards capitalism.
The Palmer raids in 1919 demonstrate effectively the fear that many people had of communism. After his house was bombed the then Attorney General A.M.Palmer created a "red scare", using the General intelligence division to arrest around 6,000 "foreign radicals", 5400 were later released due to lack of evidence. The public lost interest as they saw the threat had been exaggerated. The ability of Palmer to create such a scare in the first place in America and also in many other Western countries.
Count Carlo Sforza noted that "the privileged classes wanted security against a "red danger" more imaginary than real - and to them the best bulwarks against the "red danger" were the two dictators in Berlin and Rome".
Indeed a British envoy stated that "These Japanese how violent, how barbarous! Just the stuff we need to destroy Moscow" and the same was true of the Germans and the Italians and their view.
This Mussolini quote illustrates the great ideological divides between fascism and "We declare war against socialism, not because it is socialism, but because it has opposed nationalism". The charisma of the two infamous fascist leaders meant that they could sell fascism as a way to overt socialism to many leading conservatives. This prompted many prominent bankers, financers and business chiefs to donate to fascist parties.
Therefore fear of socialism and communism's played a major part in the development of fascism but bourgeoisie hate of socialism also contributed to the origin of Fascism.
Fascism was a combination of pre-existing ideologies such as nationalism and militarism. What caused these ideologies to fuse together was WW1 which discontented Italians and Germans after Versailles, and its effect to split the political left between internationalist and nationalists. Fear of socialism (amongst the general population and not just the upper-class) also contributed.
As fascist parties expanded and no longer depended heavily on the support of business they adopted a very anti-capitalist approach - turning on its creators.
Mussolini detested the "super capitalism" that caused the depression and even criminalised 1st class train cabins.
Hitler stated that the bourgeoisie "know nothing except their profit, "Fatherland" is only a word for them". This conflict in views between moderate conservatism and fascism made the clash inevitable the tragedy was that British and French Tories did not realised it 10years too late.
So yes Fascism was the answer of many German and Italian conservatives to the growing red threat in their own countries. British and French conservatives failed to see how fascism turned on its creators and adopted a policy of non-interventionism as they saw it as a means to stand against Moscow.

Italy only. Therefore the question should be re-phrased to 'country'. The term fascist in the anglo-saxon culture is wrongly (like the rest of history) interpreted and taught. Fascism was the political ideal of Italy's Mussolini in Italy during the period from 1922 to 1945 and still followed nowaday by young and old. Fascism stands for an ideal of life and country against capitalism and communism. *Fascism: a political philosophy, movement, or regime that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition. Only in Italy was the controlling political party given this name, but by this definition, Nazi Germany and WW2-era Japan were even more Fascist than Italy.

What were the ghettos in the Nazi Germany?
Typically, a ghetto is a part of a city, not necessarily a slum area, occupied by a minority group. The term was first used for the enforced concentration of Jews into specific residential areas in European cities from the Middle Ages, but has now spread to include other ethnic groups in unofficial ghettos, especially black minorities in the USA. Lifestyles within the ghetto differ distinctly from those of the 'host' population and the prejudices of the host confine the sub-group to particular locations. see redlining. Although ghettos are characterized by social disadvantage, most ghettos display a spread of socio-economic groups and the better-off may move to the affluence of the 'gilded ghetto'.
