The same principle applies to business.

Not under duress. But willingly, and often eagerly. Drawing on a century of history, the book traces how economic elites have repeatedly aligned themselves with far-right regimes—from Mussolini’s Italy to Hitler’s Germany to Pinochet’s Chile—not because of shared ...
