Did It Happen Here?
Did It Happen Here?
An essential primer for the thoughtful citizen
Since the 2016 election, politicians, historians, intellectuals, and media pundits have debated a startling question: Is fascism happening here? Some argue that fascism has arrived and, to grasp the challenge it poses, we must gain insight from Europe's past, lest American democracy succumb. But others question whether this Eurocentric notion truly reflects our political moment, or exemplifies a provincial American perspective on a much more complex global landscape.
To illuminate the issues, this anthology offers key texts from the sharpest minds commenting on politics and history, past and present. Jumping off from classic pieces by Hannah Arendt, Angela Davis, Upton Sinclair, Reinhold Niebuhr, Leon Trotsky, and others, Did It Happen Here? brings together the most insightful contributors to the contemporary discussion, from Samuel Moyn to Robin DG Kelley to Ruth Ben-Ghiat and Pankaj Mishra.
The result is the go-to resource for every politically attuned reader worried about fascism and the politics of fear today.
