Translated, annotated and edited by Tobias Roth, Petra Dobner and Beate Swoboda
At long last, *Militant Democracy and Fundamental Rights* is being published in German translation, supplemented by an afterword and annotations by Petra Dobner. The book is an urgent contribution to the current debate and situation – and, even almost a hundred years after it was written, still worthy of many a cry of outrage.
Loewenstein’s text provides an overview of fascist movements across Europe, including in the democracies that still existed in 1937.
Löwenstein’s analysis reveals how democratic structures can be misused to facilitate a fascist takeover, and how the opportunities afforded by a free society are exploited to subjugate and homogenise that very society.
