Technocracy and Fascism: Historical Parallels
This chapter examines the historical links between technocracy and fascism, focusing on Japan's 1930s bureaucratic control and its implications for modern governance in the U.S. It critiques the current alignment of some technocrats with far-right ideologies, raising concerns about a 'techno-fascist agenda' that prioritizes private interests over public good. The discussion highlights the moral and societal impacts of a technology-driven governance model, drawing parallels to historical events that shaped today's political landscape.
