Jacques Doriot (September 26, 1898–February 22, 1945) was a French Fascist and politician prior to and during World War II.
In 1923, Doriot was arrested for violently protesting French occupation of the Ruhr.
Doriot resided in collaborationist Vichy France for a time, but he eventually found that it wasn’t nearly as fascistic as he had hoped it would be and moved to occupied Paris, where he espoused pro-German and anti-Communist propaganda on Radio-Paris.

Jacques Doriot[zhAk dOryO´] Pronunciation Key, 1888–1945?, French collaborator during the German occupation of France in World War II.
By that time a strong supporter of Adolf Hitler, Doriot came into his own after the German defeat (1940) of France in World War II.
Treated coolly by the Vichy government, but backed by the German occupation authorities, he organized a youth movement, recruited for a French legion to fight Russia, and sought to control the French laborers who had been sent to work in Germany.

 Attention to Doriot -- Monday, Jun. 07, 1937 -- Page 1 -- TIME
They began to worry when they learned that he, for 16 years mayor of the normally Red suburb of St. Denis and a potent member of the Paris Municipal Council, was actually converting a number of St. Denis voters to fascism.
A key point in the program of Doriot, who favors an alliance with Germany and Italy, is the union of pro-German and anti-Russian elements in France.
By edict of the Ministry of the Interior, he was removed from office as mayor of St. Denis, charged with corruption in the purchase of coal and the awarding of electrical contracts.

Flandin, like Laval and Doriot, knows well that he stands to be executed if the Republic is ever restored--for his betrayal of France in allowing the Rhineland to be re-militarized while he was Premier and for his criminal correspondence with the Nazis before and during the invasion last Summer.

By this time tomorrow, Doriot will be in my pocket and I will be a famous man, or as famous as a man whose work must necessarily for the most part be done in secret can become.
Doriot took no special notice, though, of those who hung back, of whom I was one.
And Doriot gave it to me. He went on, "The workers' revolution almost came off in Russia after the war, but the forces of reaction, the forces of oppression, were too strong.

The youngest by far of a devoted family, with a 7 year old sister, brothers of 13 and 15, a beloved mother, and Juliette, her “second mother,” Marie knew nothing of the disasters taking place around her.
Often away from home, her father was “involved in politics,” in fact he was the right-hand man of Jacques Doriot, leader of a fascist party and collaborationist.
Her memories are those of a happy childhood and a normal adolescence, even if her family was sorely tried: her eldest brother disappeared in a bombardment in Germany; her father was arrested in 1946 and sent to prison until 1954.

In 1933 Doriot created a major sensation by coming out openly against what he called the senseless course of the Communist International.
He argued for an alliance with the Socialists to oppose fascism, but nothing was farther from Moscow's intentions at that time.
When the combined forces of fascism and monarchism staged their memorable coup d'état on February 6, 1934, Doriot made another attempt to effect unity between the labor parties.

Certainly, fascist intellectuals of the time exploited the easy jeu de mots with the Nietschean connotation, and today's scholars may write a few paragraphs about it.
Yet I doubt if the working class audiences of Doriot, or the "agents des renseignemnts generaux" who spied on the meetings, had even ever heard of Nietsche.

 Oliver Kamm: Respect and fascism
It is not only that many intellectual forebears and political leaders of fascism have come from the Left (notably Georges Sorel and Benito Mussolini, respectively), or that unambiguously pro-fascist parties have sprung from the Left and considered themselves part of the Left.
(Most prominent among those parties was probably the Parti Populaire Français establised by the Communist leader Jacques Doriot in 1936.
The most interesting historical figure in this respect is the Belgian Marxist Henri de Man, whose ideas were a powerful influence on Mussolini, and also on a generation of French Socialists led by Marcel Déat.

 THE POLITICS OF VIRILITY - New York Times
Others have maintained that early 20th-century nationalist movements such as the Action Francaise, despite a penchant for extralegal activism, had more in common ideologically with conservatism than with fascism; or, taking this argument a step further, that if an indigenous political tradition did spawn French fascism, it was not conservatism, but revolutionary socialism.
The extremes of the political spectrum were linked in this view by their opposition to bourgeois materialism and parliamentarism, their cultivation of a mass following and significant crossovers from left to right of individual leaders such as Georges Valois and Jacques Doriot.
In ''French Fascism: The First Wave, 1924-1933,'' Robert Soucy challenges the attempt to dissociate conservatism from fascism, maintaining instead that the two movements were closely allied.

Immediately, the LVF is embarked in the Franco-French political competition, each collaborationist organization trying to lead the show, hoping to increase its own influence.
The most successful are the MSR (Deat) and the PPF (Doriot), using extensively the “Anti-Bolshevik crusade” propaganda to which part of the French opinion is receptive.

The party of Jacques Doriot in France, the Rexists in Belgium, the Iron Guard in Romania, the Hungarian National Socialists, the Croatian Ustachi, and the German-American Bund in the United States were all affiliated to some extent with the Nazis.

 The New York Review of Books: 'France's Hollow Years': An Exchange
His remark that I am intent on characterizing French fascism as anti-Semitic is seriously mistaken.
Colonel de La Rocque and Jacques Doriot, the leaders of France's two largest fascist movements in the mid-1930s, were much closer to Mussolini than to Hitler in this respect and no less "fascist" for it.
It was only after the Popular Front led by the Jewish socialist Léon Blum came to power in 1936, and even more so after 1940 under the German Occupation, that La Rocque and Doriot (Doriot more than La Rocque) played the anti-Semitic card.
