This session raises the question of the elites and corporativism in different parts of the Iberian world, in other words, Spain, Portugal and various Latin American countries. |
Sociologically, also, the Spanish national-syndicalist idea is very different from the Italian Corporativism, as will be clear from the appropriate passages in this book. |

Many of those who ingenuously were attracted by the myth of corporativism, can and must be attracted by the task of renewing structures. |
So-called corporativism is merely the next chapter in the story of the tragically failed legacy of reform liberalism. |
Economically, this is the hallmark of the different varieties of socialism, whether you call it communism, fascism, Marxism, mercantilism, corporativism, or what have you. |
