| Opplysninger | Ideology, nationalism and fascism -- Right-wing authoritarianism and authoritarian capitalism -- Trumpism: Donald Trump and authoritarian-capitalist statism -- Trumpology: Donald Trump's ideology -- Trump and Twitter: authoritarian-capitalist ideology on social media -- Conclusion: authoritarian communicative capitalism and its alternatives.. - Delves into new political-economic structures as expressed through political communication to explain the rise of authoritarian capitalism, nationalism and right-wing ideology throughout the world. Fuchs does this through updating Marxist theory and the Frankfurt School's critical theory. He re-invigorates the works on authoritarianism of Franz L. Neumann, Theodor W. Adorno, Erich Fromm, Herbert Marcuse, Max Horkheimer, Wilhelm Reich, Leo Löwenthal and Klaus Theweleit in the age of Trump and Twitter. In the age of big data and social media, Fuchs studies the expressions of ideology, nationalism and authoritarianism today and discusses prospects for overcoming capitalism and renewing the Left. --From publisher description.
