The problem is based on the wave of authoritarian and violent actions that are perpetuating themselves from leaders within the current democratic system, the difficulty of understanding these acts as fascists implies the loss of fundamental rights that were once carried out. As methodology, bibliographic research and document analysis were conducted. A 10-year time frame was applied for the bibliographic review. The final results showed that fascism has been present since its birth, however, it is transmuted according to the historical context, adapting to social demands. Despite the current formation of the elements, the characteristic bases are the same and consequently it restricts fundamental rights in order to achieve mass control.
