Défense De L'Occident
''Défense de l’Occident'' (English: ''Defense of the West'') was a French neo-fascist magazine founded by Maurice Bardèche and published from 1952 to 1982. It was the most significant far-right magazine in post-WWII France, providing an arena for the promotion of neo-fascist ideas and Holocaust denial. History The magazine was established by Maurice Bardèche and Jean-Louis Tixier-Vignancour in December 1952.
