Fascism shattered Europe a century ago — and historians hear echoes today in the U.S.

Center for Right-Wing Studies affiliates are quoted in this Berkeley News article on echoes of European fascism in the United States. AJ Solovy, recipient of a CRWS graduate student mini-grant, says "Even if there is not a one-to-one match, the themes that emerge — insecurity, crisis, a sort of existential political angst — can help explain why so many people are attracted to the MAGA movement.” Lawrence Rosenthal, CRWS Chair and Lead Researcher, says that in both Europe and the US, people suffered from a profound sense of dislocation which created a violent break between past and future that affected tens of millions of people.
