Edición de la obra Fascism

In Fascism, Past, Present, and Future, renowned historian Walter Laqueur illuminates the fascist phenomenon, from the emergence of Hitler to Mussolini to Vladimir Zhirinovsky and his cohorts to fascism's not so distant future. Laqueur tellingly uncovers contemporary adaptations of fascist tactics and strategies of the French ultra-nationalist Le Pen, the rise of skinheads and right-wing extremism, and Holocaust denial. It is a riveting, if sometimes disturbing account of one of the twentieth century's most riveting, if sometimes disturbing account of one of the twentieth century's most hateful political ideas, in a book that is both a masterly survey of the roots, the ideas, and the practices of fascism, and an assessment of its prospects in the contemporary world.
