"This book examines and establishes connections between Italian fascism and Hindu
nationalism, connections which developed within the frame of Italy's anti-British
foreign policy. The most remarkable contacts with the Indian political milieu were
established via Bengali nationalist circles. Diplomats and intellectuals played an
important role in establishing and cultivating those tie-ups. Tagore's visit to Italy
in 1925 and the much more relevant liaison between Subhas Chandra Bose and the INA
were results of the Italian propaganda and activities in India. But the most meaningful
part of this book is constituted by the connections and influences it establishes
between fascism as an ideology and a political system and Marathi Hindu nationalism.
While examining fascist political literature and Mussolini's figure and role, Marathi
nationalists were deeply impressed and influenced by the political ideology itself,
the duce and fascist organisations. These impressions moulded the RSS, a right-wing,
Hindu nationalist organisation, and Hindutva ideology, with repercussions on present
Indian politics. This is the most original and revealing part of the book, entirely
based on unpublished sources, and will prove foundational for scholars of modern Indian
history"
