The Fascist Horizon: Theoretical and Political Perspectives

Join us for the closing plenary of HM Online 2021: The Fascism Horizon: Theoretical and Political Perspectives —————————————————————————————— The past few years have seen a resurgence in theoretical, analytical and activist debates on the question of fascism across the world, in response to multiple and mutant revivals of racist, reactionary and revanchist movements. This panel will explore different dimensions of these debates, ranging from the cartography of current authoritarian formations to the forging of anti-fascist conceptual frameworks, from the nexus of fascism and ecological catastrophe to the ambiguous relationship between fascism and “freedom”. The Fascist Horizon: Theoretical and Political Perspectives Lise Benoist (Uppsala University / Zetkin Collective) – TBA Sabrina Fernandes (Rosa Luxemburg Stiftung) – Dependent Capitalism and Its Authoritarian Face in Brazil Andreas Malm (Lund University / Zetkin Collective) – TBA Ugo Palheta (University of Lille / Contretemps) – Dynamics of Fascisation and the Antifascist Struggle in Contemporary France Alberto Toscano (Goldsmiths, University of London / Simon Fraser University / Historical Materialism) – The Fascist Love of Freedom —————————————————————————————— This event is co-sponsored by Historical Materialism and Haymarket Books. While all events for HM Online are free to register, the organizers ask comrades who are able to please consider making a donation, which would help enormously in covering the costs of putting together this programme of events. Like all left organisations, HM had a very tough period from the beginning of 2020 and our budgets are very stretched and bank balance is sinking all the time, with very little revenue coming in. If you can make a contribution to help keep us afloat, please don’t hesitate! —————————————————————————————— Follow us!
