... then (if the term 'Fascism' won't serve, even as a generalized concept) perhaps we need a new political definition for a totalitarian form of governance which embraces market economics? Re: "that the collapse of totalitarian regimes hostile to the United States was not guaranteed by the failure of socialist economics to compete with capitalism?" >>> Let's see... 'collapse not guaranteed by economic failure'. Seems almost a contradiction in terms, but I suppose that while economic failure doesn't 'guarantee' political collapse in the short term... it at least makes collapse highly likely in the longer term. >>> Failure is not a state humans are wont to live in perpetually, especially is a viable (and visible) alternative is conceivable.
