In this book, Joao Nunes de Almeida rethinks the relationship
between crisis and fascism in today's liberal democratic societies.
Arguing that fascism has adapted to a post-modern idea of endless
crisis, Almeida challenges one of the strongest liberal myths in
western politics, namely that fascism and liberal democracy have
different roots. Fascism, in Almeida's view, is at the center of
the very production of social relations in western capitalist
societies, and is the result of the very desire to be saved from
crisis underlying liberal democracy. It draws on stormy examples
from Portugal's contemporary history, with a particular focus on
its fascist past and revolution, to explore affinities between
crisis and fascism in other spatial and historical contexts. Joao
Nunes de Almeida concludes that refusing to be saved from crisis
becomes the refusal of any form of fascism in a more global
context.
