Summary/Abstract: Irrationality is implicit in the development of civil society. Overcoming or amortizing irrationality lessens disruptions or, as one might put it, maintains an unbroken continuity in the relevant systems of civil society. Critical theoory of society has determined that civic relations as a whole are characterized by an equilibrium between rationality and irrationality. Previous stages of .civic development generatively affirm the principle of rationality. The contradictions of the failure to create the appropriate infrastructural dynamic in the mature stage of the liberalism of civic development in indivvidual nation-state identities give rise to the hypothesis of the surmountable impasse. Impasses express and demonstrate, or force upon us, the fact that it is possible to achieve a certain outcome or radicalization as a result of aspiration, or, as the experience of history has shown us, by taking the route of opting for the socialist concept. The political and social aspect of the individual existence of civic development created the nation. In our present conditions, the economic basis of historical and social circumstances is increasingly subject to political predominance within irrational impulses, and other factors of national constitution become a reason for segregation, .the reification of exclusivity, manipulation and instrumentalization. An interdisciplinary analysis of the political and historical processes of these reinforces critical theory from the point of view that the current practice of socialism leads to authoritarianism and inevitable failure, while civil society, as defined by progressive stages, acquires the potential to facilitate itself for the long-term. The irrational components of civic relations are neither elimminated nor repressed, but rather, by the introduction of organized control elevated to a mediating level. Fascist leanings are the direct product of irrationality. Classical fascism in the political and economic developments of past ruling power as typically applied had aspirations to world domination. The founding concept of the fascist right to dominance evolved within the ideological nomenklatura of the shifts and application of threatened status. In this regard, fascism was instituted as an aggressive offensive strategy, directed and programmed to achieve this right. Neofascism was conceived in the tradition of classical fascism, and in the essential features of its immediate structure, manifestation, .expression and influence on power, is identical to it Comprehensive analyses and scholarly theoretical observations of critical theory have typically been confirmed by the events of subsequent decades. Although these findings are increasingly determined and shaped in civic terms, and although civic preoccupations have acquired Flaschenpost attributtes, they have become inescapable in the most literal sense, and the passage .of time has reinforced them, giving them meaning and importance.
