Krátky popis
The #1 NYT BESTSELLER A personal and urgent examination of Fascism
in the twentieth century and how its legacy shapes today's world,
written by one of America's most admired public servants, the first
woman to serve as U.S. secretary of state. ",There is priceless
wisdom on every page.", Kirkus Starred review A Fascist, observes
Madeleine Albright, `is someone who claims to speak for a whole
nation or group, is utterly unconcerned with the rights of others,
and is willing to use violence and whatever other means are
necessary to achieve the goals he or she might have.' The twentieth
century was defined by the clash between democracy and Fascism, a
struggle that created uncertainty about the survival of human
freedom and left millions of innocent people dead.Given the horrors
of that experience, one might expect the world to reject the
spiritual successors to Hitler and Mussolini should they arise in
our era. In Fascism: A Warning, Madeleine Albright, draws on her
own experiences as a child in war-torn Europe and her distinguished
career as a diplomat to question that very assumption. Fascism, as
Albright shows, not only endured through the course of the
twentieth century, but now presents a more virulent threat to
international peace and justice than at any time since the end of
World War II.The momentum toward democracy that swept the world
when the Berlin Wall fell has gone into reverse. The United States,
which has historically championed the free world, is led by a
president who exacerbates popular divisions and heaps scorn on
democratic institutions. In many countries, economic, technological
and cultural factors are weakening the political centre and
empowering the extremes of right and left.Contemporary leaders such
as Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong-un are employing many of the same
tactics used by Fascists in the 1920s and 30s. Fascism: A Warning
is a book for our times that is relevant to all times. Written with
wisdom by someone who has not only studied history but helped to
shape it, this call to arms teaches us the lessons we must
understand and the questions we must answer if we are to save
ourselves from repeating the tragic errors of the past.
