Alt Reich

Ahmed takes readers on a frightening whirlwind tour from Washington to London, Brussels to Budapest, throwing light on how a global network of financiers, lobby groups, think-tanks, journalists, and fixers made Trump the epicentre of an insidious form of fascism that has radicalised the UK Conservative Party, infected neoliberal economics, boosted extreme nationalists across Europe, and fanaticised Silicon Valley techno-utopian billionaires.

This timely and eye-opening new history of the far-right shows how this is worsening, not solving, our biggest planetary challenges - economic chaos, climate disaster, and energy insecurity - leaving us with a stark choice which we ignore at our peril.
