This Thirst for Harshness: On the New Fascism
A shift to the right is sweeping the globe; everywhere, authoritarian forces are gaining power and influence. And yet the ever-recurring analogies to the Nazi era come to nothing: Contemporary fascism has taken on a new form that is not easy to recognize and even harder to explain. In Redecker’s groundbreaking analysis, its diffuse nature takes on contours—and becomes vulnerable. She identifies its core in the invocation of an unconditional claim to ownership—
—the defense of which stops at nothing. An illuminating and defiant book that pits solidarity against the rampant harshness of our times and exudes the joy of thinking. Eva von Redecker presents a new analysis of fascism that is equal to the challenges of our present.
