Article by Vicente Navarro, published in Counterpunch, on the 12th of December, 2022.

This article explains the causes of the growth of Fascism and Nazism, from the 1930s, during The Great Depression, until the present day. It also includes the growth of Neo-Fascism and Neo-Nazism movements that occurred during The Great Recession and afterward due to the application of neoliberal policies by the governments on both sides of the North Atlantic, including in countries with very different (quasi-opposite) political traditions, such as Sweden (with a historically strong labor movement) and the U.S. (with a historically weak labor movement). The article also focuses on the consequences of this growth, representing a serious threat to democratic institutions and to the well-being and quality of life of the majority of their populations.
