Fascism & Nazism

"In this new collection, Matthew Feldman extends his examination of the far right in its various forms and guises, addressing matters of immediate public concern like Islamophobia and neo-Nazism, while also paying attention to the fascist past and its modulations in the present. If this marks a continuity with his previous collection of essays, Politics, Intellectuals, and Faith, the present volume nevertheless constitutes a departure by presenting a broader and more various spectrum of Feldman's concerns and modes. The first part of the book includes articles which engage political, artistic, and religious subjects, including Ezra Pound, Thomas Merton, and Samuel Beckett. The second part is made up of ""comment pieces"", where similar matters are treated in reaction to various occasions, offering a more informal but equally engaged response to questions of live interest. The reviews that make up the third part present Feldman's views of others' work on the subjects that have been his lifelong concern.

The volume's contributors are: Matthew Feldman, Karim Mamdani, Steven Matthews"
