Fascism, Populism and American Democracy de Leonard Weinberg

Fascism, Populism and American Democracy: Routledge Studies in Extremism and Democracy

Autor Leonard Weinberg
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 9 oct 2018
Hard right-wing politics is growing in popularity in America, marked by Donald Trump’s success in the 2016 election, and it is worth questioning what this means for the American democratic system. This book seeks to explain the vulnerability of democracies to the appeal of right-wing politics through a contemporary case study of the US, and how democracies are possibly under threat from a conflict between popular attitudes and institutional paralysis. Various forms of American right-wing extremism are examined here, such as the alt-right, the radical right and the Religious right, but their perceived relevance to Trump’s victory is questioned. Even still, this book asks the question: can the far-right prevail under the American way?

Recenzii

‘Fascism, Populism and American Democracy finally offers genuine insights and considered analysis to those eager to understand the complex relationship to actual fascism of the populist movement of support that Trump has whipped up with his rhetoric, rather than join in the public slanging match about it. Highly readable, but profound, the book gives intelligent readers the chance to regain a foothold on the terra firma of Enlightenment values based not on mythic thinking and visceral emotions, but on research-based knowledge and argument.’ – Roger Griffin, Professor of Modern History, Oxford Brookes University
‘Weinberg, a preeminent scholar of radicalism after World War II, portrays an important and thought-provoking picture of the challenges that the populist right poses to the democracy in America. This excellent book is a must read.’　- Ami Pedahzur, Arnold S. Chaplik Professor in Israel and Diaspora Studies, The University of Texas at Austin.
‘Leonard Weinberg proves again that he is one of the most lucid and intriguing voices among scholars of political extremism, as he　provides an innovative and comprehensive analysis of the factors shaping the rise of far-right populism in the United States. A must read for anyone striving to comprehend the impact of far-right ideology on the contemporary American political landscape’. - Arie Perliger, Professor,　School of Criminology and Justice Studies, University of Massachusetts Lowell
