Description
Antifascism(s) in Latin America and the Caribbean explores the diverse and often overlooked antifascist movements that emerged throughout the region during the twentieth century. Rather than treating antifascism as a monolithic ideology, this comprehensive volume examines multiple forms of antifascist resistance, from communist organizations to liberal democratic groups, labor movements, and indigenous resistance.
Editors Sandra McGee Deutsch and Jorge A. Nállim trace how marginalized political actors and movements gradually gained influence in shaping Latin American and Caribbean responses to fascism. The book demonstrates that antifascism was not simply imported from Europe but developed distinctly within local contexts, reflecting regional political cultures, economic conditions, and social movements.
Through detailed case studies and comparative analysis, the volume reveals the significance of antifascist struggle in forging national identities and political ideologies across the Americas. This work contributes essential insights into twentieth-century Latin American political history and the global fight against authoritarianism.
