End Times Fascism

‘This urgent and essential book explains why we should be extremely frightened of, and extremely angry about, the man-made wreckage of the present. It is an indictment of those that engineer and profit from this apocalyptic moment. But it also a vital rallying call for a new universalism, a humane and inspiring project which might ensure our collective emergence from this crisis’ – Max Porter
[A] bold, clarifying intervention… Their valuable contribution is to map out the frightening new territory in which we find ourselves, and point to an escape – Daniel Trilling * Guardian *
For those who since Trump’s first term have debated whether fascism is back, Klein and Taylor make a convincing argument in the affirmative… But they warn that history is not a repeating loop. Instead it spirals, taking us to places that look familiar but are changed by unpredictable new developments. Watch for yellow stars or jackboots and you’ll miss the facial-recognition databases… The value of End Times Fascism, as always with Klein, is in the connections it makes. She noted recently that her work is pattern recognition. The particular genius of her writing has been to combine compelling reporting with an ability to see the oblique lines linking apparently disparate trends – Anthea Lawson * Observer *
