In African political science, tropical fascism is a type of post-colonial state which is either considered fascist or is seen to have strong fascist tendencies.^[1] Gnassingbé Eyadéma the dictator of Togo from 1967 to 2005 has been considered an example of tropical fascism in Africa.^[2] The Hutu Power movement, a Hutu ultranationalist and supremacist movement that organized and committed the Rwandan Genocide aimed at exterminating the Tutsi people of Rwanda, has been regarded as a prominent example of tropical fascism in Africa.^[3] The Khmer Rouge regime in Cambodia has been called a tropical fascist regime in spite of the regime's official commitment to communism particularly by opponents of the regime.^[4]
