Publisher's Synopsis
This book is about one simple idea: that the wave of racism and reaction sweeping the world is the modern form of fascism. The ascendance of politicians like Trump in the U.S., Le Pen in France, Salvini in Italy, Orban in Hungary, Bolsonaro in Brazil, and many more in other countries, cannot be explained as a passing phase of 'populism', and to do so minimises the acute dangers we face from the global rise of the far-right. How do we prevent the history of the 1930s repeating itself in the early 21st century? How do we break fascism, before it breaks us, and open the road to an alternative future and a world transformed?
