Anti-fascism is the opposition to fascist ideologies, organizations, governments and people.
- TIGR (1927-1941) abbreviation for Trst (Trieste), Istra (Istria), Gorica (Gorizia) and Reka (Rijeka (Fiume)), was the first antifascist national-defensive organization in Europe, consisting of Slovenians in Slovenian region of Primorje (Primorski Slovenci). Many members of this organization were connected with Yugoslavian and British intelligence services and many of them were militarily trained. The organization was not invited to join the OF (Liberation front) of the Slovenian nation in 1941, but many members of TIGR later joined Slovenian partisan's brigades in 1943, after the capitulation of Italy,, especially the Overseas Brigades (Prekomorske brigade).
