11. Stanley Payne defines the FLN as protofascist. He misrepresents the party as neither antisemitic nor anti‐parliamentary, and therefore not comparable with a fascist movement, see Stanley Payne, A History of Fascism 1914–1945 (London: UCL Press, 1995), p. 300.
12. Stanley Payne’s qualification of the FNL as ‘highly Catholic, in a orthodox sense’ should thus be put into perspective, ibid.
