Third Position: Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 22:59, 13 August 2023

The Third Position is a political alignment that claims to transcend the Western left-right political scale, as well as the contradiction between liberalism and Communism. It is typically associated with fascism and National Socialism.

Many Marxists reject the idea that fascism and National Socialism represent a true "third position" is because fascism is based in a capitalist perversion of socialism that arose from the Crisis of Marxism, marking it as more of a pseudo-Communist form of liberalism rather than a distinct political theory.

Despite similar nomenclature and demonyms (Third Positionist and Fourth Positionist), it is not similar to the Fourth Political Theory, a political theory developed by Alexander Dugin that goes beyond liberalism, Communism, and fascism.
