In the past weeks Fratelli d'Italia, a party who can trace a lineage to Mussolini's regime, was elected as the leader of a far right coalition that will take power in Italy.

Today David Broder, Jacobin European editor and author of upcoming book Mussolini's Grandchildren: Fascism in Contemporary Italy, joins the podcast to discuss the election, Fratelli d'Italia's bad gender politics, its links to the non electoral far right and more.
