Description

Fascism: A Warning by Madeleine Albright is a personal and urgent examination of Fascism in the twentieth century and its enduring legacy. The book draws on Albright's own experiences as a child in war-torn Europe and her distinguished career as a diplomat to question the assumption that the world has rejected the spiritual successors of Hitler and Mussolini. Albright argues that Fascism, far from being a relic of the past, presents a more virulent threat to international peace and justice than at any time since the end of World War II. The momentum toward democracy that swept the world when the Berlin Wall fell has gone into reverse, and the United States, which has historically championed the free world, is now led by a president who exacerbates popular divisions and heaps scorn on democratic institutions. This timely and thought-provoking book is a worthwhile read for anyone seeking to understand the complexities of Fascism and its impact on the world today.
