The big assumption here is that authoritarianism in Europe would get you better infrastructure. My personal belief is that for good infrastructure you want capable local industry (to build it) AND a population that is not too wealthy (because this gives additional infrastructure more relative value, keeps the workforce for building it more affordable and thus citizens less likely to oppose the whole thing). I don't think that having european dictators would really help either of those points, so my infrastructure expectations from neofascism are quite low.
