Ebook: Democracy, Fascism and the New World Order

Growing up as the grandson of Sir Oswald, the 1930's blackshirt leader, made Ivo Mosley consider fascism with a deep and acutely personal interest. Whereas conventional wisdom sets up democracy and fascism as opposites, to ancient political theorists democracy had an innate tendency to lead to extreme populist government, and provided unscrupulous demagogues with the ideal opportunity to seize power. In "Democracy, Fascism and the New World Order", Mosley argues that totalitarian regimes may well be the logical outcome of unfettered mass democracy.
