Making Sense of Fascism

by Matthew N. Lyons Screwston Anti-Fascist Committee February 2021, staple-bound booklet SKU: n/a   This is an abridged version of Matthew N. Lyons’ essay “Two Ways of Looking at Fascism,” originally published in the July 2008 issue of Socialism and Democracy (Vol. 22, No. 2). Featuring custom artwork printed in color on the front and back covers by the Screwston Anti-Fascist Committee. "Fascism is a revolutionary form of right-wing populism, inspired by a totalitarian vision of collective rebirth, that challenges capitalist political and cultural power while promoting economic and social hierarchy. This definition - with its twin focus on ideology and class rule - offers a fuller, more rounded model of fascism. In the process, it fives us a more powerful tool to map divisions, relationships, and changes in right-wing politics, and to understand how these dynamics relate to changes in capitalism." - from the cover
