Sonali Kolhatkar speaks with David Renton, Barristor, historian, and anti-fascist activist. His earlier books include Fascism: Theory and Practice. His latest book is The New Authoritarians: Convergence on the Right.
A new and terrifying wave of authoritarianism veering toward fascism has taken hold of the leadership in many nations today.

Sonali's next guest is a historian who says that although today’s right-wing radical movements are more moderate than classical fascism, there are many similarities.
