Oct 29, 2011 at 12:39 | comment | added | ShreevatsaR | etymonline gives (under fascist): "Fasci "groups of men organized for political purposes" had been a feature of Sicily since c.1895, and the 20c. totalitatrian sense probably came directly from this, but influenced by the Roman fasces, which became the party symbol." See also fasces which confirms the connection. | |
