Fascists Among Us | Jeff Sparrow

The massacre of more than fifty worshippers at mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand, shocked the world.
The murders were not random.
They expressed a particular ideology, one that the alleged perpetrator described as ‘fascism’.But what does fascism mean today ― and what kind of threat does it pose? Jeff Sparrow traces the history of the far right, showing how fascists have adapted to the new politics of the twenty-first century.
Burgeoning in dark places online, contemporary fascism exults in violence and picks its targets strategically.
Today, it is Muslims;
tomorrow, it will be Jews or gays or Asians.With imitative massacres already occurring around the world, Christchurch must be a wake-up call.
This book makes a compelling, urgent case for a new response to an old menace.
