How Fascism Works

MacLeod Andrews’ narration is a standout feature, delivering Jason Stanley’s dense material with the precision and conviction required to bring his theories to life. The pacing is deliberate yet engaging, allowing listeners ample time to digest the intricate concepts without feeling overwhelmed. While the subject matter can be heavy, Andrews’ performance is so compelling that it makes for an almost riveting listen. However, some passages are dry and require multiple re-listenings for full comprehension—a common trade-off with such intellectually dense content. Despite this, ‘How Fascism Works’ remains a vital resource, offering indispensable insights into the tactics of modern authoritarianism.
