As a professor of philosophy at Yale, a scholar of propaganda, and the child of World War II Jewish refugees, Jason Stanley understands how democratic societies can be vulnerable to fascism. Alarmed by the pervasive rise of fascist tactics at home and around the globe, Stanley set out to analyze the language and beliefs that separate people into an us and a them in his new book, How Fascism Works, The Politics of Us and Them. In a fascinating First Person conversation, Stanley speaks with journalist Peter Beinart about the history, philosophy, sociology, and current events that he incorporates into his book, and how his own family history influences his understanding of the world today.
