WHERE: L'Entrecote, Hilton Anatole Hotel, 2201 Stemmons Freeway, Dallas, TX 75207.
TOPIC: Mr. Goldberg will discuss his brand new book, “ LIBERAL FASCISM: The Secret History of the American Left, From Mussolini to the Politics of Meaning” (Doubleday; January 8, 2008)
There will be a Question and Answer period at the end of Mr. Goldberg's remarks, and he will be available to sign copies of his book after the event.
Jonah Goldberg offers a startling new perspective on the theories and practices that define fascist politics. Replacing conveniently manufactured myths with surprising and enlightening research, he reminds us that the original fascists were really on the left, and that liberals from Woodrow Wilson to FDR to Hillary Clinton have advocated policies and principles similar to those of Hitler's National Socialism and Mussolini's Fascism.
In this fierce, funny, highly controversial book, Goldberg turns our preconceptions inside out and shows us the true meaning of fascism. Impeccably researched and persuasively argued, LIBERAL FASCISM exposes the roots of modern liberalism in the fascist doctrines of the 1930s.
