Utilizing a combination of historical, political, and sociological lenses, the narrative unravels the intricacies of how such ideologies come to power, their methodologies of governance, and their impacts on the democratic fabric of their respective nations.
The heart of the narrative delves into the challenges democracies face when accommodating or confronting these ideologies.
