Plato's Republic Book 5:
>And the city whose state is most like that of an individual man.

>For example, if the finger of one of us is wounded, the entire community of bodily connections stretching to the soul for ‘integration’

>with the dominant part is made aware, and all of it feels the pain as a whole, though it is a part that suffers, and that is how we come to say that the man has a pain in his finger. And for any other member of the man the same statement holds, alike for a part that labors in pain or is eased by pleasure.”

>“The same,” he said, “and, to return to your question, the best governed state most nearly resembles such an organism.”

>That is the kind of a state, [462e] then, I presume, that, when anyone of the citizens suffers aught of good or evil, will be most likely to speak of the part that suffers as its own and will share the pleasure or the pain as a whole.” “Inevitably,” he said, “if it is well governed.”

>But we further agreed that this unity is the greatest blessing for a state, and we compared a well governed state to the human body in its relation to the pleasure and pain of its parts.”

>Then will not law-suits and accusations against one another vanish, one may say, from among them, because they have nothing in private possession but their bodies, but all else in common.

>So that we can count on their being free from the dissensions that arise among men from the possession of property, children, and kin.
OP, I recommend reading Mario Palmieri and Alfredo Rocco.
Importantly, yes, read Giovanni Genitle's Doctrine of Fascism and Mussolini Doctrine on Fascism and his speeches. Read Mussolini's speeches:

Giuseppe Bottai is also a good read for understanding Fascism.
I talk at length about State Corporatism in this thread: >>24783826
It's important to understand State Corporatism for what it truly is, because many people have a misconception of what State Corporatism is (thinking private corporations and not the State itself as a unitary mode of politic and one corporate body of the State, like Hobbes' Leviathan or as espoused in Plato's Republic).

I disagree.
I think Monarchists could learn a thing or two from Fascists: Monarchists should be looking into State Corporatism and admiring a Unitary mode of Politics. Monarchists have been psyoped into thinking of Monarchy on Aristotle's terms only and in terms of decentralization and abandoned the unitary framework of Monarchical rule for mixed constitutionalism.
Fascism and other State Corporatist ideologies, to the contrary, are laying the groundwork for future monarchies: they might not have a Christian crown, but these secular dictators are your modern monarchies in a way.
State Corporatism is a unitary politics with the State as one personhood, a living organism, a higher personality and being; not to be confused with a collection of private corporations...

The ideology of State Corporatism traces its lineage back to Plato's Republic, Hobbes' Leviathan, and the formation of one-party States and Fascism.
In Plato's Republic is State Corporatism:
>That the other citizens too must be sent to the task for which their natures were fitted, one man to one work, in order that each of them fulfilling his own function may be not many men, but one, and so the entire city may come to be not a multiplicity but a unity.
In Hobbes' Leviathan is State Corporatism:
>And in him consisteth the Essence of the Common-wealth; which (to define it,) is "One Person, of whose Acts a great Multitude, by mutuall Covenants one with another, have made themselves every one the Author, to the end he may use the strength and means of them all, as he shall think expedient, for their Peace and Common Defence.”
In Italian Fascism is State Corporatism:
Giovanni Gentile
>It is the State that possesses a concrete will & must be considered a person.
Gentile
>It is the State that possesses a concrete will & must be considered a person.

Giuseppe Bottai
>However, in speaking of the corporative State, it must not be understood as meaning only all that which pertains to the relations between employers and workers – relations based on a principle of collaboration rather than upon a struggle of classes. Fascism with its new arrangements aims at a more complex end. This, summed up in a few words, is "to reassert the sovereignty of the State over those syndicates, which, whether of an economic or social kind, when left to themselves broke out at one time against the State, subjecting the will of the individual to their own arbitrary decision, almost musing the rise of judicial provisions alien to the legal order of the State, opposing their own right to the right of the State, subordinating to their own interests the defenceless classes, and even the general interest, of which the State is naturally the judge, champion and avenger."
