Islamists, progressives, far-right: who are the real heirs to Hitler?

Watch the full uncut interview HERE: https://thebrinkpodcast.substack.comIn this episode of The Brink, Andrew and Jake are joined by historian Roger Moorhouse to ask what became of fascism after the Second World War, and whether its influence can still be seen in politics today.From Nazi influence in the Arab world and the rise of Islamism to Putin’s Russia and Donald Trump’s America, Roger explores which elements of fascism have survived and why the label itself may now be doing more harm than good.The conversation also turns to the populist right, political extremism and the attempts from both left and right to rewrite the legacy of Winston Churchill and the Second World War.Don't forget to check out our merch store: https://www.thebrinkmerch.com/Chapters00:00 What Is Fascism?02:26 How Fascism Became a Political Insult06:10 Racism, Antisemitism & Nazi Germany10:05 Humiliation: The Fuel of Fascism16:08 Fascism’s Influence on the Arab World20:51 Hitler, Al-Husseini & Political Islam28:02 Is Putin’s Russia Becoming Fascist?30:20 Trump & the Fascism Question40:36 Erdoğan & the Problem with the “Fascist” Label44:55 What Fascism Can Teach Us Today Hosted on Acast.
