	The Origins and Nature of Fundamentalism in Society by Niccolo Caldararo
		In fact, comparisons are striking in some cases, for example the relationship between the USA and Iran in the post-WWII period with the rise of Mossadeq, his suppression and the ensuing installation of the Shah and the eventual rise of an organized resistance movement which produced today’s religious state.
		But this clouding of the belief system with rebellion leads to considerations of other revivalistic movements which were authoritarian as well as fundamentalist, for example, Nazism.
		We see this in the reaction to Hellenism which was similar in Judea as the Dead Sea Scrolls demonstrate with regard to the Essenes, Zakodites and others as we read in Josephus (Antiquities) and the documents themselves (Kahle, 1959; Caldararo, 1994a).
