Fascism on Trial: Education and the Possibility of Democracy - Hardcover
by Henry A. Giroux (Author), Anthony R. Dimaggio (Author)
This book interrogates rising fascism in America.It spotlights the major facets of fascism that increasingly characterize contemporary US politics, in relation to political authoritarianism, the rise of anti-intellectualism, the mainstreaming of conspiracy theories, the glorification of political street violence and state violence, rising white supremacy, and the militarization of US political discourse. Alongside this, Giroux and DiMaggio show how the assault on critical education and pedagogy is central to the fascist program.
