The Zolberg Institute's Race & Mobility Working Group, in collaboration with the History Department and the Janey Program in Latin American Studies at The New School, presented the launch of the new series Cambridge Elements in the History and Politics of Fascism.
Edited by leading scholars António Costa Pinto and Federico Finchelstein, the series offers cutting-edge methodological and theoretical approaches to studying fascism. It explores fascism in its multiple forms—as an ideology, a movement, and a regime—and examines key dimensions such as anti-fascist resistance, sexuality, gender, economics, culture, and the intersections and divergences between fascism and populism.
The series also addresses the legacies of fascism from 1945 to the present, analyzing the ongoing impact of fascist, post-fascist, and neo-fascist movements, as well as the evolution of democratic responses to these challenges.
This event marked an important moment for scholars, students, and all those interested in fascism's historical and political complexities and enduring relevance.
