The Coming of American Fascism, 1920–1940

Click here to access a review of a new book by Robert authored by Chris Wright from Dissident Voice.
Roberto tells the history of the American political economy in the 1920s and ’30s through this lens, exploring how the fascist structures of our own day were forged between the two world wars.
Although Wright differs with some details, his review of Roberto's book about the roots of fascism in the USA during the period from 1920-1940 sees his history as very accurate. I generally agree with Wright who sees the development of fascism in the USA as continuing after WWII. I think that American fascism took off with the publication of "The American Century" in Time magazine by the well-connected Henry Luce, and continued aggressively right after the war (in contrast to what Wright asserts--see this).

Most of Roberto's history has been expunged by ruling class historians. This is further evidence that a capitalist ruling class controls all institutions of any given nation, and this includes academia. Only honest history books, which most people rarely read, can with difficulty occasionally pass through their censors.
