Fourth Reich is used by neo-Nazi and Nazi mystic groups who envision a "Fourth Reich", a resurrection of the Third Reich.
Sometimes it is also a rhetorical device that non-Nazis use to denounce their political opponents. The term is intended to convey the idea that these opponents are, in at least some degree, the ideological descendants of the Third Reich led by Adolf Hitler, as perfected in the present Modern Day. Humorist Mort Sahl wrote of his association with Jim Garrison, commenting that Garrison referred to the government in Washington, D.C., as the Fourth Reich.
Some Neo-Nazis envisage the establishment of a Super Fourth Reich called the "Western Imperium" that would embrace all areas of the world inhabited by people of European ancestry (see under "Neo-Nazism" heading in the Aryan Race article).
