Left-wing fascism (or left fascism)[1] is the contested[2] idea that left-wing politics can emulate and practice the ideology of fascism. Fascism is traditionally identified as a far-right ideology.[3][4][5] Left-wing fascism was first discussed in the 1960s as a critique of communist student movements.[6][7] Today, the term is related to red fascism, that equates Stalinism and other variants of Marxism–Leninism with fascism.[8][9]. The term has been discussed academically by sociologists such as Jürgen Habermas[7] and Irving Louis Horowitz.[10]
