'For its historical depth analytical vigour and mobilizational potential this book is
unparalleled ... every page is an urgent invitation to resist' David Lammy MP The bestselling
author of PostCapitalism offers a guide to resisting the far right The far right is on the rise
across the world. From Modi's India to Bolsonaro's Brazil and Erdogan's Turkey fascism is not
a horror that we have left in the past it is a recurring nightmare that is happening again -
and we need to find a better way to fight it. In How to Stop Fascism Paul Mason offers a
radical hopeful blueprint for resisting and defeating the new far right. The book is both a
chilling portrait of contemporary fascism and a compelling history of the fascist phenomenon:
its psychological roots political theories and genocidal logic. Fascism Mason powerfully
argues is a symptom of capitalist failure and it has haunted us throughout the twentieth
century. History shows us the conditions that breed fascism and how it can be successfully
overcome. But it is up to us in the present to challenge it and time is running out. From the
ashes of COVID-19 we have an opportunity to create a fairer more equal society. To do so we
must ask ourselves: what kind of world do we want to live in? And what are we going to do about
it?
