520 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.
Albright draws on her experiences as a child in war-torn
Europe and her distinguished career as a diplomat to
question that very assumption. Fascism, Albright shows,
not only endured through the course of the twentieth
century, but now presents a more virulent threat to 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 center 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.
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.
