Show Notes
Our guest in this episode is Ugo Palheta, a writer and academic whose book on the rise of fascism in France was published in English this year (translated by Flep24 guest David Broder). Ugo tells us about the “refascisation” of French society, the role racism plays in contemporary fascism, and the crisis of capitalism that has helped produce it. Plus, are there any fascist countries in the world today?
All this and more, in today’s episode of Flep24.
