Faces do neofascismo: uma análise do movimento identitário em contexto latino-americano

Abstract

The self-proclaimed identitarian movement began as an expression of typically European neofascism, combining ideological elements of the French/European New Right, characterized as a reaction against globalization and mass immigration on the European continent. For these groups, national identity, formed essentially by ethnic and/or biological aspects, is under alarming threat in the face of capitalist modernity and multiculturalism. In recent decades, identitarianism has become an effectively global phenomenon of the far right, with autochthonous interpretations in non-European regions. Given this context of transnationalism, the proposed research aims to analyze the specificities of neofascism/identitarianism in Latin America. To this end, the research will mainly analyze three self-proclaimed identitarian groups: Legião Identitária (Brazil); Fuerza Nacional-Identitaria (Chile); and Frente Ungerista Identitario (Mexico).
