The Philo-Fascist Leanings of a ‘Literary Project’: A Page in the History of the Bratstvo Russkoi Pravdy
The Bratstvo Russkoi Pravdy (BRP) was a self-proclaimed terrorist organization that emerged among the Russian emigration in the interwar period. Their grandiose claims of terrorist activities inside the USSR put the BRP at the centre of much controversy during its existence and are still a matter of debate, which has at times eclipsed the analysis of other aspects of the organization. This article, focusing on the BRP’s main organ, Russkaia Pravda, as well as other publications by the group, will attempt to show that the organization was ideologically close to fascism in both its Italian and German varieties, actively trying to promote these ideas within the Russian diaspora and establishing ties with groups and organizations aligned with fascism.
