Panunzio said that syndicalism is the historical development of Marxism. He pointed to George Sorel and Francesco Severio Merlino as revising Marx to fit the times and emboldening it. He is said to have "spearheaded the revisionism that led many syndicalists through interventionism to corporativism." It is said that he "gave Mussolini?s dictatorship a veneer of revolutionary legitimacy."(http://users.ju.edu/jclarke/hy350italyclarke.htm)
