Fascist?  Not really, though  adjectives like "racist," "ultra-nationalist," "imperialist," "aggressively expansionist," and the like add up to a pretty similar picture.

I should add that Barrington Moore thought that the Japanese were fascist, and his opinion is more valid than mine is.  However, that entire chapter of his book was murky and pretty unclear.

Have I mentioned before that I love Barrington Moore?  Any author who can, out of nowhere, go on a tangent that explains German history from the 1400s-present is pretty damn awesome.
