The #NewFascismSyllabus is a crowd-sourced collection of scholarly writings on the history of fascist, authoritarian, and right-wing populist movements and governments. It is intended to serve as an entryway into the scholarly literature for those seeking deeper insights into how past societies have gravitated towards authoritarianism, and seeks to provide comparative perspectives on how everyday people, as well as cultural authorities and civil institutions, coped and, in some cases, resisted these changes.
