The global rise of authoritarianism and anti-democratic efforts in the United States have prompted many to use the f-word — “fascism” — to characterize our current moment. In what ways does the political ideology of fascism capture or misrepresent what’s happening in political life today? In particular, how do strongmen and authoritarian movements rely upon lies, violence and a false construction of reality to further their goals? Join us for this moderated conversation with Ruth Ben-Ghiat, historian, commentator and author.
This event will also be livestreamed through the Center's YouTube channel (https://youtube.com/@asu_csrc) and on ASU Live (https://video.ibm.com/asutv).
