anti-fascist movement
Opposition to authoritarianism
Anti-fascist movement refers to organized opposition against fascism and far-right ideologies.
The term encompasses a broad range of activism—from mainstream political coalitions opposing fascist regimes in the 1930s and 1940s to contemporary street-level confrontations with white nationalist groups.
Participants may use tactics ranging from peaceful protest to direct physical confrontation.
The movement lacks centralized leadership; anti-fascist movement often describes loose networks of local groups rather than a unified organization.
