As the child of refugees of World War II Europe and a renowned philosopher and scholar of propaganda, Jason Stanley has a deep understanding of how democratic societies can be vulnerable to fascism: Nations don’t have to be fascist to suffer from fascist politics. In fact, fascism’s roots have been present in the United States for more than a century.

This is NOT a book on fascism.
Revisado: 11-29-22
His conclusions:
US Republicans=fascism;
History=fascism;
Nationalism=fascism;
Sexism=fascism;
Patriarchy=fascism:
Racism=fascism;
Xenophobia=fascism;
Anti-labor=fascism;
Corporate hierarchy=fascism....I think you get my point.
The author has attempted to redefine fascism to encompass a very wide range of topics that deviate from the traditional definition. He spends little time discussing the two truly fascist regimes (except to equate US Republicans and totalitarian leaders with Hitler) and identifies leaders such as Putin, Orban, Erdogan and...of course....Trump as fascists, when they are not. The majority of the book's discussion of "us vs. them" should reallly read..."US white men vs. blacks"...it reads like a piece of CRT. A poor book to expand one's understanding of fascism. I would recommend the reader seek Paxton's work and skip this propaganda.

What is fascism? By focusing on the concrete, what the fascists did rather than what they said, the esteemed historian Robert O. Paxton answers this question for the first time. From the first violent uniformed bands beating up "enemies of the state", through Mussolini's rise to power, to Germany's fascist radicalization in World War II, Paxton shows clearly why fascists came to power in some countries and not others.

Larry Diamond has made it his life's work to secure democracy's future by understanding its past and by advising dissidents fighting autocracy around the world. Ill Winds' core argument is stark: the defense and advancement of democratic ideals relies on US global leadership. If we do not reclaim our traditional place as the keystone of democracy, today's authoritarian swell could become a tsunami, providing an opening for Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping, and their admirers to turn the 21st century into a dark time of despotism.

Disguised as an Acedemic Book
Revisado: 10-28-22
This book is best characterized as a rant vs. a cogent academic analysis. His conclusion, democracy can only be saved if it is reinenforced or is altered to generate the outcomes he desires. Very disappointed Mr. Fukuyama recommended this book.
