Fascist leaders are much more overtly concerned with mobilizing an angry mob and turning loose on the traditional institutions of the state or the opposition."Resources Mentioned in This EpisodeArticle: It is Time to Use the F word About Trump: Fascism, Populism and the Rebirth of History by TourishBook: Rebalancing Society by Mintzberg (free PDF)Book: Principles For Dealing with the Changing World Order by DalioBook: How Civil Wars Start by WalterBook: The Cult of Trump by HassanBook: The Fourth Turning is Here by HoweBook: Liberal Solidarity by HodgsonAbout The International Leadership Association (ILA)The ILA was created in 1999 to bring together professionals interested in studying, practicing, and teaching leadership.
