Research output: Contribution to Journal › Article

Abstract

The sixth annual convention of the International Association for Comparative Fascist Studies (COMFAS) took place from 6 to 8 October 2023 and this year was hosted by Central European University in Vienna. The event, organised by Antonio Costa Pinto alongside COMFAS Presidents Aristotle Kallis and Constantin Iordachi, fostered an important, constructive space to discuss research, both in formal panels and keynote sessions, as well as informally across the three days. The theme year was ‘Paramilitarism in Fascism and the Radical Right’, a field that allowed for a wide range of time periods and approaches to the topic to be explored.
