En un recorrido fascinante que nos lleva del mundo árabe en tiempos de Mahoma a las ciudades-Estado de la Italia medieval, de la Latinoamérica de las dictaduras a la Suecia que inventó la socialdemocracia, de la caótica República de Weimar a la China imperial, El pasillo estrecho nos introduce en el que tal vez sea el proceso más fascinante de la historia: el de la obtención de la libertad.

Combinando un conocimiento profundo de historia y filosofía con la sensibilidad literaria de un elocuente humanista, Rob Riemen identifica la ruta del eterno retorno del fascismo.

Lautstark schwingen sich selbsternannte Tribunen des Volkes, esoterische "Querdenker" und autoritäre Demagogen zu Verteidigern der demokratischen Ordnung auf, deren Werte sie eigentlich ablehnen. Um Gefolgschaft zu organisieren, schüren sie Ängste vor drohendem Chaos und spinnen Verschwörungstheorien über anonyme Mächte, die das Schicksal der Nation bestimmen. Vorschläge zur Lösung komplexer gesellschaftlicher Probleme sind ihre Sache nicht.

Faschismus und Totalitarismus, Integration und Intoleranz, Migration und Europa, Identität, das Eigene und das Fremde - die zentralen Begriffe in Umberto Ecos fünf Essays könnten kaum aktueller sein. Gerade in ihrer zeitlichen Distanz zeigt sich die Stärke von Ecos Gedanken: Losgelöst vom tagesaktuellen Geschehen, scheinen in ihnen die überzeitlichen Strukturen auf, die unserem Denken und Handeln zugrunde liegen. Präzise, wortgewandt und gespickt mit persönlichen Erinnerungen rufen seine Texte die komplexe Geschichte der Herausforderungen wach, vor denen wir heute stehen.

Am 6. April 1967 hielt Theodor W. Adorno auf Einladung des Verbands Sozialistischer Studenten Österreichs an der Wiener Universität einen Vortrag, der aus heutiger Sicht nicht nur von historischem Interesse ist. Vor dem Hintergrund des Aufstiegs der NPD, die bereits in den ersten beiden Jahren nach ihrer Gründung im November 1964 erstaunliche Wahlerfolge einfahren konnte, analysiert Adorno Ziele, Mittel und Taktiken des neuen Rechtsradikalismus dieser Zeit.

Orbán, Erdoğan, Bolsonaro... Sind das Diktatoren? So leicht sagen kann man das gar nicht. Klar: Noch sind diese "Populisten" nicht der neue Stalin oder Mussolini. Aber ihre Methoden ähneln denen der Geschichte doch sehr deutlich. Die Gängelung der Medien zum Beispiel, das Schüren eines Feindbildes oder auch die Pflege des Ausnahmezustands... All diese Dinge werden von den Populisten von heute verwendet und kommen direkt aus dem Hörbuch, das ihnen die großen Diktatoren der Geschichte hinterlassen haben.

Cosa si puo dire di Benito Mussolini che non sia gia stato detto? È possibile raccontare la sua parabola politica, dagli esordi come socialista e anarchico alla sua trasformazione in accanito interventista, dalla costituzione dei Fasci di combattimento alla tragica evoluzione in dittatore e all'epilogo in piazzale Loreto? Marco Lucchetti - esperto di storia militare - analizza, attraverso 101 episodi più o meno noti della vita del duce, non soltanto la sua vicenda personale, ma anche le radicali trasformazioni subite dall'Italia durante il Ventennio.

Rechte sind überall. Sie sitzen im Bundestag - in Form der AfD. Sie nutzen die sozialen Netzwerke und tragen Hass und Gewalt auf die Straßen. Franziska Schreiber analysiert in ihrem neuen Hörbuch die Strategien der Rechten im Kampf um Macht und Wählerstimmen und zeigt, wie wir uns dagegen wehren können. Was ist die richtige Antwort auf die gezielten Provokationen der AfD, die Parlamente als Bühne demokratiefeindlicher Propaganda missbraucht? Wie führen wir Debatten mit Rechten, die Fake News und einer "Wir gegen alle"-Rhetorik anheimfallen?

In late 1936, as Franco’s armies stormed toward Madrid, Stalin famously termed the defence of Spain “the common cause of all advanced and progressive mankind.” As a German emigrant to Winnipeg, Hans Ibing recognized the importance of the Spanish Civil War to the struggle against worldwide fascism in a way that most people in Canada did not - joining the International Brigades in their fight to defend the Spanish Republic was his “chance to fight Hitler.”

Written by a cult survivor and renowned expert on cults and totalitarianism, Terror, Love and Brainwashing draws on the author's 25 years of study and research to explain how almost anyone, given the right set of circumstances, can be radically manipulated to engage in otherwise incomprehensible and often dangerous acts.

For all of the energy that the far right has demonstrated - and for all of the support that they receive from institutional conservatives in the GOP and affiliated organizations - the United States is experiencing an upsurge in left-wing social movements unlike any other in the past half-century, with roots not in the Democratic Party but Occupy Wall Street and Black Lives Matter. Drawing on his original reporting as well as archival research, O’Connor investigates how the capitalist class and the radical right mobilize racism to defend their interests....

Ezra Weston Loomis Pound (October 30, 1885-November 1, 1972), born in what is now Hailey, Idaho, was a major American figure in the early modernist poetry movement and a fascist collaborator in Italy during World War II. Angered by the carnage of World War I, Pound blamed the war on finance capitalism, which he called "usury". He moved to Italy in 1924 and through the 1930s and 1940s promoted an economic theory known as social credit.

Sir Oswald Ernald Mosley (1896-1980) was a British politician best remembered as leader of the British Union of Fascists (Blackshirts) in the 1930s. Mosley was a member of Parliament during various periods between 1918 to 1931. He is known for holding huge political rallies in Britain while trying to unite the various fascist movements around Europe. This is a recording of a speech that he gave in London in 1954.

It began with an armchair. It began with the surprise discovery of a stash of personal documents covered in swastikas sewn into its cushion. The SS Officer’s Armchair is the story of what happened next, as Daniel Lee follows the trail of cold calls, documents, coincidences and family secrets, to uncover the life of one Dr Robert Griesinger from Stuttgart. Who was he? What had his life been - and how had it ended?

In this compelling book, highly acclaimed author and broadcaster Laurence Rees tells the definitive history of the most notorious Nazi institution of them all. We discover how Auschwitz evolved from a concentration camp for Polish political prisoners into the site of the largest mass murder in history - part death camp, part concentration camp, where around a million Jews were killed.

An expert on American authoritarianism offers a searing rebuke of the exceptional narrative that dominates our understanding of US history. In 12 lessons, Matthew C. MacWilliams' On Fascism exposes the divisive rhetoric, strongman tactics, violent othering, and authoritarian attitudes that course through American history and compete with our egalitarian, democratic aspirations. Trumpism isn’t new but rooted in our refusal to come to terms with this historical reality.

Berlin, November 1937. Adolf Hitler meets with his military commanders to impress upon them the urgent necessity for a war of aggression in Eastern Europe. Some generals are unnerved by the Führer’s grandiose plan, but these dissenters are silenced one by one, setting in motion events that will culminate in the most calamitous war in history.

Joe Mulhall knows what it’s like to stare fascism in the face. For a decade, often undercover at significant personal risk, he has investigated hate groups. He infiltrated a US white supremacist militia, set up a fake Ku Klux Klan branch, has been on countless street marches with violent far-right groups across Europe and got inside some of the most important ‘alt-right’ meetings ever held. Brazil, India and the US are still in thrall to authoritarian populism, and far-right views have become steadily normalised in mainstream politics.

The mysterious, brutal, and calculating Kim Jong Un has risen to become the unchallenged dictator of a nuclear rogue state. He now possesses weaponry capable of threatening America and its allies, and his actions have already significantly changed global politics. It’s believed that Kim Jong Un is in his 30s, only a few years into what will likely be decades of leadership. He is in the news almost every day, and yet we still know almost nothing about him and how he became the supreme leader of the hermit kingdom.

They were an astonishing group: glamorous, gutsy, and irreverent to the bone. As cub reporters in the 1920s, they roamed across a war-ravaged world, sometimes perched atop mules on wooden saddles, sometimes gliding through countries in the splendor of a first-class sleeper car. While empires collapsed and fledgling democracies faltered, they chased deposed empresses, international financiers, and Balkan gun-runners, and then knocked back doubles late into the night.
