Overview
Why didn't the streets fill the way they did in 2017, when Trump first took office and resistance surged? Journalist and theorist A. M. Gittlitz delivers a provocative answer: today's political stillness isn't surrender - it's evolution.
While most books rush to celebrate or critique the resistance, Beyond Antifascism dares to ask what its absence reveals. Drawing on radical communist theory and on-the-ground analysis of flashpoints from Charlottesville to ICE facility closures, Gittlitz argues that traditional leftist frameworks - social democracy, apolitical workerism, and vanguardism - are no longer suited to our fragmented reality. Rather than mourning the decline of mass movements, he shows how this apparent dormancy may signal a strategic pause: an intuitive recognition that new forms of collectiveaction are needed.
With clarity and urgency, Beyond Antifascism reframes our understanding of power, protest, and political change, offering not nostalgia but a compelling vision for what might come next.
