From rhetoric to body language , to their control over oral and written communication and analogous power strategies, they both possess an unusual talent for new technologies which they utilize to their advantage in unique moments in history. Mussolini lived at the beginning of mass society, Trump at the height of social media, both controversial leaders finding means to utilize these periods of time and the tools surrounding them to further their own agendas and influence society, culture, and authority. The authors examine a plethora of topics and themes such as outward personalities and consuming charisma, means and tools of communication and propaganda, and treatment of women, just to name a few, in order to define the relationship and similarities between these two controversial figures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003ePreface by Anthony Julian Tamburri\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction: Similarities in the Trump and Mussolini Eras\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter I: Manipulating Information\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter II: The Climb: A New Narrative\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter III: Protean Leaderships\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter IV: Mechanisms of Consensus and Democracy\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter V: Ideology as a Prop\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter VI: Achieving Internal Consensus\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter VII: Geopolitics\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter VIII: The Women\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInterview with Ambassador Robert J.
