Résumé anglais The France of the 1930s was allergie to fascism, Serge Berstein The author confutes the theses developed by Z. Sternhell in his recent book Ni droite, ni gauche (Neither right, nor left). He criticizes Sternhell for his lack of a precise definition of fascism, methodological faults, wrong analogies and approximations, all of which could lead one to think that the France of the 1930s was the chosen ground of fascist ideology. The intellectuals lured by fascism were actually marginal individuals, powerless to obliterate durably the depth of democratic culture. The middle classes at crisis could be organized within the framework of liberal democracy (the traditional right, the Radical party, the veterans movement), and in France the prospects for social fascism were as dim as those for intellectual fascism.
