About this ebook
How Fascism Works: The Politics of Us and Them by Jason Stanley: Conversation Starters
Fascism is on the rise and we ought to see the patterns of fascist politics and resist it.
Fascist tactics create divisions among people which lead to a weak society that will easily succumb to proposals of authoritarian governance. This book explains the populist presidency of Trump, the Brexit phenomenon, the rise of Hungarian leader Orban who is supported by rightist politicians, the five-star movement and its roots in Italy, the authoritarian leadership of Erdogan, and many similar fascist developments around the globe.
How Fascism Works is written by Jason Stanley, the author of two award-winning books, Know How; Languages in Context; Knowledge and Practical Interests and How Propaganda Works.

EVERY GOOD BOOK CONTAINS A WORLD FAR DEEPER
than the surface of its pages. The characters and their world come alive,
and the characters and its world still live on.

bring us beneath the surface of the page
and invite us into the world that lives on.
These questions can be used to create hours of conversation:
Foster a deeper understanding of the book
Promote an atmosphere of discussion for groups
Assist in the study of the book, either individually or corporately
Explore unseen realms of the book as never seen before
