The European unification project emerged due to confronting the fascism that devastated the continent. However, this struggle has not ceased since various fascist characteristics have survived in a series of openly neo-fascist movements and political parties within the European Parliament. Without the explicit violence of fascism and neo-fascism, these parliamentary post-fascisms still retain the forms of exclusion of historical fascism and characteristics contrary to human rights, the rule of law, and the values of the European Union. The proposed solution is based on a series of measures that support democratic memory. Following a content analysis methodology, we will pursue the objective of this study: to analyze the different forms that fascism has taken in Europe.
