Rezensionen

"Jason Stanley's engaging work has taught people in the 21st century the anatomy of fascism as a political system. In Erasing History, Stanley dissects the ideological components of the fascist assault on historical teaching, memory and analysis. He shows how everything from the antisemitic Great Replacement Theory to the vilification of gay people and feminists to the promotion of myths of national purity and historical innocence all work to demolish democratic agency and freedom. But he leaves us with the sense that those who fight for the past can save the future."
