As developed democracies around the globe falter, the rise of right-wing populism comes perilously close to fascism. Marxist counter theories are increasingly rejected, as reputedly equality- promoting left-wing authoritarian regimes embrace privilege for the ruling elite.
Is the world drifting into a dark age of political extremes? Academic and historical author Dr. Neil Faulkner and three colleagues, Samir Dathi, Phil Hearse, and Seema Syeda bring an informed view to analysis of the creeping fascism behind the rise of America's Trump, Austria's Hofer and the France of Le Pen. New Chapter examines their contention that racism and nationalism are on the rise.
