Fascism is a distinct ideology also known as far right. There are defining characteristics for it.

I would say no. Right-wing authoritiarianism, even genocidal right-wing authoritarianism, does not fascism make. In the case of Turkey, most of the essential requirements for fascism are missing: movment of the ruined middle class and lumpen proletariet, support of the capitalist class, industrialized society, etc.

I think capitalism does have a cosmotheory and a view of man. A very bleak one at that but it does.

I think capitalism is an ideology. It is a system of operating and viewing the world just as much as socialism is. In fact capitalism and liberalism and/or conservatism are practically identical when compared to socialism.

Behind each economic system there lies a fundamental view of man which differs frome achother (actually it's the compelte opposite) and economic systems are based on the way of viewing man.
For example, capitalism (liberalism, conservatism etc) claims that man is greedy and self centered by nature. Thus the economic model chosen is one of personal initiative, "harvesting" the greed etc
Communism in its foundations believes that man is by nature benevolent and helping, caring. The economic system which evolves from that theory of viewing man is one of collectivity, shared resources etc.

Regarding Fascism in Turkey: I think it is correct that Turkey is not a Fascist state per se. However within the Turkish state there is a powerful Fascist organisation, commonly know as the Gray Wolves. They are employed by the state as assassins, agents provocateurs, and in certain military echelons. These are trained by the German intelligence and US advisors. Also many governors in the the Kurdish areas in Turkey are members of the Grey Wolves organisation.
The ideology of the Grey Wolves is racist and imperial. They believe in a Turkey from 'the Balkans to the Chinese Wall'. All citizens within must either assimilate into being Turks or be exterminated.
It is questionable if there has been a Fascist mobilization of the Turkish middle classes. However it is interesting to note the international nature of present day Fascism. In some ways the Turkish Fascist are really an extension of NATO.

from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capita..._as_an_ideology
quote: Capitalism as an ideology
As with many common words, and most particularly ideologically laden words, "capitalism" has many meanings. There can be great confusion amongst these meanings, and readers must be careful of which meaning a writer intends in any particular usage.
"Capitalism" as a phenomenon (the system of the private ownership of capital goods) is certainly different from "capitalism" as an ideology (the philosophical advocacy of that system). Moreover, the precise ideology meant by "capitalism" in the latter sense differs: what a Marxist or Green may describe as capitalist ideology may seem thoroughly alien to what a classical liberal means by calling himself a capitalist, and vice versa.
Opponents of capitalism sometimes deny that these represent subtantially different things, or say they go hand-in-hand. This criticism is often founded upon the Marxist idea that ideology is largely a consequence of underlying economic realities -- or the simplification thereof which holds that people favor ideologies which justify their behavior or privilege.
Although it is arguable whether these meanings the word "capitalism" of the same kind are somehow "equivalent" under someone's subjective notion of equivalence, for the sake of not making a straw man argument when accusing someone else to be a proponent of capitalism, these different concepts must be clearly distinguished.

quote: 1. What is capitalism?
Capitalism is a social system based on the principle of individual rights. The term capitalism is used here in the broader philosophical political sense, and not in the narrower economic sense, i.e. a free-market.

Actually that's the very basis of capitalism. Unless we're using a different interpretation of the term.
