In attempting to pinpoint the historical events that turned a culture of tolerance into an autocratic police state, Paris compares what occurred in medieval Spain to the social upheavals of 19th and 20th century France and Germany. She discovers many striking patterns and also eerie similarities with the social and political unrest in modern day North America.
