Fascism: A Warning - Tapa blanda

"Albright outlines the warning signs of fascism and offers concrete actions for restoring America's values and reputation. There is priceless wisdom on every page."--Booklist (starred review)

"Fascism: A Warning is dedicated to victims of fascism, but also to "all who fight fascism in others and in themselves." Mrs Albright has earned the right to that ambitious mission-statement. At a moment when the question "Is this how it begins?" haunts Western democracies, she writes with rare authority.... [Yet] if her learning is to be expected, her way with words is a happy surprise, as is her wisdom about human nature. Free of geopolitical jargon, her deceptively simple prose is sprinkled with shrewd observations about the emotions that underpin bad or wicked political decisions."--Economist

"Besides providing an overview of the careers of Mussolini and Hitler, Albright looks at leaders such as Venezuela's Hugo Chávez, Turkey's Recep Erdogan, Hungary's Viktor Orban, and Russia's Vladimir Putin.... Sage advice in perilous times."--Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"Incisive... [Albright] offers cogent insights on worrisome political trends."--Publishers Weekly

"Albright [has] serious credibility on the subject. She witnessed the evils of Fascism firsthand, as her book movingly chronicles. And she effectively makes the case: pay more attention to the signals, subtle and strong. A lot more."--The New Yorker

"Why, as Madeleine Albright asks early in her new book, 'are we once again talking about fascism?' Who better to address these questions than Albright, whose life was shaped by fascism and whose contribution to the cultivation of democracy as a stateswoman and private citizen is unparalleled? In Fascism: A Warning Albright (with Bill Woodward) draws on her personal history, government experience and conversations with Georgetown students to assess current dangers and how to deal with them."--New York Times

"Fascism [is] the work of a woman who knows authoritarianism when she sees it. And she sees the seeds of it not only in a slew of leaders hell bent on subverting democratic norms--Turkey's Erdoğan, Venezuela's Maduro, Hungary's Orbán, and others--but also in Donald Trump, whom she calls in the book 'the first antidemocratic president in modern U.S. history.'"--The Daily Beast
