Críticas:

At a time of escalating political uncertainty, when the forces of totalitarianism threaten once more to crawl out of the American woodwork, Friendly Fascism is a powerful tool- better yet, a weapon- that can help us avert a distinctly unfriendly future. - Alvin Toffler First-rate...a fascinating, provocative job. Bertram Gross has written an important book, and it deserves the widest possible audiences. - Michael Harrington This is the best thing I've ever seen on how America might go fascist democratically. Friendly Fascism offers a very clear exposition of where America is, and how we got there. - William Shirer

Reseña del editor:

This provocative and original look at current trends in the United States presents a grim forecast of a possible totalitarian future. The author shows how the chronic problems faced by the U.S. in the late twentieth century require increasing collusions between Big Business and Big Government in order to 'manage' society in the interests of the rich and powerful. 

This “friendly fascism”, Gross argues, will probably lack the dictatorships, public spectacles and overt brutality of the classic varieties of Germany, Italy and Japan, but has at its root the same denial of individual freedoms and democratic rights. No one who cares about the future of democracy can afford to ignore the frightening possibilities of Friendly Fascism.

A strikingly prescient book for a Trump era.
