When the Cold War ended, many, including former secretary of state Madeleine Albright, believed that democracy had triumphed politically once and for all. Yet nearly thirty years later, a repressive and destructive force has begun to reemerge on the global stage that looks very much like fascism. Albright paints a clear picture of how fascism flourishes and explains why it is once again taking hold worldwide, identifying the factors contributing to its rise.

This is an excellent book about fascists and other tyrants, including, kind of obliquely, Donald Trump. Albright is a superb writer and I found her short histories of fascists from Mussolini to Trump enlightening and frightening.
