Francis Parker Yockey (September 18, 1917 – June 17, 1960) was an American lawyer, author, and fascist known for his neo-Spenglerian book Imperium: The Philosophy of History and Politics, published in 1948 under the pen name Ulick Varange, which called for a neo-Nazi European empire. Yockey supported far-right causes around the world and remains an influence on white nationalist and neo-fascist movements. Yockey was an antisemite, a reverent proponent of German Nazism, and an early Holocaust denier. In the 1930s, he contacted and worked with the Nazi-aligned Silver Shirts and the German-American Bund.
