'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?
