An understanding of the contemporary constellation of right-wing national and transnational social movements can benefit from comparing the recent movements and the global context with what happened in the first half of the 20th century to figure out the similarities and differences and to gain insights about what could be the consequences of the reemergence of populist nationalism and fascist movements. Our study uses the comparative evolutionary world-systems perspective to study the global right from 1900 to the present. We see fascism as a hybrid of capitalism and a tributary mode of accumulation that co-evolves with capitalism and socialism. The point is to develop a better understanding of 21st century fascism, populist nationalism and authoritarian practices and to help construct a praxis for the New Global Left. Here we examine the roots and contemporary causes of contemporary rightwing populism and neofascism. We describe the ideological structure of the global political geoculture and the changing nature of the Global Right by comparing 20th century fascism with the neo-fascist and authoritarian populisms that have emerged in recent decades. World historical waves of right-wing populism and fascism may have been caused by cycles of globalization and deglobalization, the rise and fall of hegemonic core powers, long business cycles (the Kondratieff wave) and interactions with both Centrist Liberalism and the Global Left. We consider how crises of the global capitalist system have produced right-wing backlashes in the past, and how a future terminal crisis of capitalism could lead to a reemergence of a new form of the tributary mode of accumulation or a reorganized global democracy in the future. We see fascism as a hybrid of capitalism and a tributary mode of accumulation that co-evolves with capitalism and socialism. The point is to develop a better understanding of 21st century fascism, populist nationalism and authoritarian practices and regimes and to help construct a praxis for the New Global Left that can reduce the damage produced by the crisis of global capitalism and move humanity in the direction of a more egalitarian and democratic global society.
