Beautifully signed album cover by Ayn Rand to front label of sleeve in red ball-point: "Ayn Rand". Presented here is a lecture entitled "The New Fascism: Rule by Consensus" held at the Ford Hall Forum in Boston on April 18, 1965. With this signed original lp cover are presented six additional from this series including: "The New Fascism (an unsigned copy); The Wreckage of the Concensus; Ethics in Education; Our Cultural Value-Deprivation; What is Capitalism?; and, "Ayn Rand Reads Her Short Story, "'The Simplest Thing in the World."' These lectures were recorded between 1965-67 with the majority held at Ford Hall Forum in Boston with other at Rutgers University. Records are generally all in very good or excellent condition with light wear. Small scratch to B side of "What is Capitalism?"; tested and plays without significant issue. Cover sleeves very good or better with moderate corner, edge wear, rub. Ethics in Education with playing time notation to label; also small tear, crease at edge to this label. The signed "The New Fascism" cover with dark brown lightly pebbled cover with gold labels, moderate cover, corner wear. 12" LP Record placed in original clear sleeve with open centered white sleeve and cover. Vinyl appears near fine with original shine. Long playing lecture at over thirty minutes on each side. In this 1965 presentation concerning fascism of a historically somewhat unorthodox variety, Rand discusses the "anti-ideology" of pressure group warfare and unlimited majority rule known at the time as "government by consensus." Rand explains why America, "a country which does abhor fascism, is moving by imperceptible degrees - through ignorance, confusion, evasion, moral cowardice, and intellectual default - not toward socialism or any mawkish altruistic ideal, but toward a plain, brutal, predatory, power-grubbing, de facto fascism." She speaks on the nature of statism, centralized power, and how through differing groups conceding their objective values - socialism, liberalism, fascism, communism - truth is compromised with assumed stances instead of stands, thus creating the fertile grounds for this imbalance from all directions and a further dependence on the state. Ayn explains the mixed economy of America with shrinking elements of free enterprise, and increasing socialism and statism, ultimately ends with less freedom and more centralized control - the new fascism. A concensus is created and all fall in line with this compromised perspective, thus giving up objective truth and becoming subjects to a system. A cogent and direct evaluation. Insured post.…
