Abstract

On the basis of analysis of archive sources, publications, documents and historians' research, key features of fascism and Nazism have been identified. Such features include: radical nationalism and racism, genocide, ethnic purges, repressive and totalitarian dictatorship, paramilitary formations, anticommunism, antidemocracy and revanchism. A comparative analysis of ideology and practice of the Ukrainian nationalism in the first half of the XXth century, German national-socialism and Italian fascism has been carried out according to these criteria. The analysis demonstrates direct correspondence between Ukrainian nationalism of this period and Nazism.
