Books by Federico Finchelstein

Federico Finchelstein draws on a striking combination of thinkers-Jorge Luis Borges, Sigmund Freud, and Carl Schmitt-to consider fascism as a form of political mythmaking. At a moment when forces redolent of fascism cast a shadow over world affairs, this book provides a timely critical analysis of the dangers of myth in modern politics.

This history of the connections between Argentine and Italian fascisms explains how Italy promoted fascism in Argentina, and how far-right Argentines adopted some elements of Italian fascism and rejected others.
