A clear distinction should be made between the more classical fascists like Mussolini who accepted inequality as a natural result of human civilization, and more radicals like the German National Socialists who made it clear that they wanted to destroy the old class system entirely via 'socializing' individuals in a totalitarian state. Hitler's obcession with the German youth was quite particular in this regard, he thought that children who have yet to enter the workforce and thus be lumped in as a class are 'pure', the Nazi's thought they could remove class at an early age through military conscription and nationalist propaganda. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.177.31.89 (talk) 05:10, 13 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Class collaboration specific to fascism??
Communism also has it (collaboration between the communist and proletariat classes) and so does capitalism (it allows people of different classes to work together).
Social-democracy supports class collaboration, while communism opposes it.
So I propose that first the article describe collaboration as a general idea, and then move on into the forms it had under fascism, communism, and capitalism. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.255.251.8 (talk) 15:30, 15 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Communist ideology is about abolishing classes, and capitalist ideology reject the idea that society is organized around classes. Fascist ideology, however, affirms that there are classes, and that they should work together for the good of the Nation. 82.66.175.16 (talk) 17:03, 22 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Social-democracy asu
Class collaboration does not always mean support of the right-wing idea of hierarchy of classes. Social democracy supports class collaboration and it is left-wing.
Class collaboration does not mean support of hierarchy of classes - a very right-wing idea. Social democracy - a left-wing movement - supports class collaboration as a means to reduce class division and hierarchy all together and promote universal equality to people regardless of existing class position.--R-41 (talk) 02:44, 2 October 2011 (UTC)
I wouldn't say social-democracy espouses class collaboration, it merely seeks a peaceful rather than violent mediation of class conflict. It's understood by social-democrats that the interests of workers and bourgeoisie are in conflict, and that the injustices committed by the latter against the former can be remedied via progressive income tax funding a welfare state. Far-right political movements view the suggestion of classes being in conflict as inherently offensive and suspicious, believing that workers and their bosses should be united under the banner of nationalism and/or religion, and that the resulting economic inequality is somehow inherently a good thing.
