Eh, Fascism is a specific version of authoritarian nationalism, but you can have the latter without it being the former (e.g. Napoleonic France, the Kaiserreich). We never refer to modern China as fascist and it has all of those qualities. I can't think of an authoritarian nationalist leader who didn't also have a significant measure of control over industry as well, so I think authoritarianism in general usually will involve a high degree of state control.
