520 |a In the past few decades, the New Guard - a paramilitary movement in New South Wales during the Great Depression - has become the subject of a robust body of academic literature. Almost ubiquitous in this literature is the claim that the New Guard and its leader Eric Campbell were fascist in nature. This article suggests that, when analysed within the context of several leading works in the field of fascist studies, certain elements of the movement's ideology - chiefly its commitment to individualism - render the label ‘fascism’ inappropriate. By analysing the rhetoric contained in its publications and the speeches of its leaders, this article breaks down the ideology of the New Guard into its constituent components and positions it on the fringe of an Australian conservative tradition that had evolved since the Great War. In doing so, it concludes that Campbell's ‘fascist turn’ in the second half of 1932 represented a logical progression of the New Guard's ideology rather than a revolutionary shift from latent to open fascism.
