Description
Once defeated, fascism was supposed to never return, but its spectre hovers over us like a dark cloud, and right-wing populists are entering governments in ever more countries. Armed conflicts are breaking out closer and closer to the EU, nationalist and xenophobic rhetoric is becoming widespread. Armed militias practise in forests, exploiting national myths and symbols. Violence against minorities is becoming more frequent. Are we living in times just before the storm, amusing ourselves in the fin de siècle dance halls? Join Przemysław Witkowski, a researcher of political extremism, as we unravel the looming threat of resurgent fascism. Is it already on our doorstep?
