In the late 1970s, a group of far-right activists launched a geo-political magazine named Confidentiel and published in Paris. Far from being a domestic project, the magazine was also launched in Spain, Italy and Argentina, thanks to the wide transnational network of which its founders formed a part. Although the magazine was relatively short-lived and enjoyed a modest circulation (despite its transnational reach), its history illuminates the trajectories of some key nodes of the neo-fascist transnational network after the fall of Franco's regime in Spain, where distinct generations of far-right activists had found a safe sanctuary. By exploring the personal trajectories of its founders and examining material published in the magazine, this article argues that members of the neo-fascist transnational network developed Confidentiel as part of a survival strategy and used it to maintain a stable presence in Europe after the mid-1970s, as well as to revitalize the network itself. Our analysis of Confidentiel shows that its founders’ choice to rely on cultural tools to revitalize their network was crucially influenced by the Nouvelle Droite's meta-political turn, which allows us to place the magazine within the European right-wing milieu. The magazine echoed neo-fascism's Pan-European vocation and the call for an independent, sovereign Europe. Nonetheless, its main goal was not to develop comprehensive and innovative geo-political analysis: as the vagueness of its political elaboration reflects. Instead Confidentiel was mainly a survival tool. The existence of several editorial seats across Europe and Latin America justified the network's movements and relations, significantly allowing them to support their allies by using the magazine to counter negative propaganda. In this sense, Confidentiel helps illuminate fascism's transnational dynamism and activism after 1945.

生存策略:通过跨国杂志重振新法西斯网络

1970 年代后期,一群极右翼活动家创办了一本名为Confidentiel的地缘政治杂志并在巴黎出版。该杂志远不是一个国内项目,它还在西班牙、意大利和阿根廷推出,这要归功于其创始人组成的广泛的跨国网络。尽管该杂志的寿命相对较短并且发行量不大(尽管它具有跨国影响力),但它的历史阐明了西班牙佛朗哥政权垮台后新法西斯跨国网络的一些关键节点的轨迹,远- 右翼活动家找到了一个安全的避难所。通过探索其创始人的个人轨迹并检查杂志上发表的材料,本文认为新法西斯跨国网络的成员开发了Confidentiel作为生存战略的一部分,并在 1970 年代中期之后用它来维持在欧洲的稳定存在,以及振兴网络本身。我们对Confidentiel的分析表明,它的创始人选择依靠文化工具来振兴他们的网络受到了Nouvelle Droite的元政治转向的重要影响,这使我们能够将杂志置于欧洲右翼环境中。该杂志呼应了新法西斯主义的泛欧使命和对独立、主权欧洲的呼吁。尽管如此,它的主要目标并不是发展全面和创新的地缘政治分析:正如其政治阐述的模糊性所反映的那样。取而代之的是机密主要是一种生存工具。欧洲和拉丁美洲的几个编辑席位的存在证明了该网络的运动和关系是合理的,显着地允许他们通过使用该杂志来对抗负面宣传来支持他们的盟友。从这个意义上说,Confidentiel有助于阐明 1945 年后法西斯主义的跨国活力和激进主义。
