ABSTRACT
This book highlights recent developments in the radical right providing comparative analysis of current extremist activity in Eastern and Western Europe and the United States. It reveals the growing amount of connections and continuities of rightwing movements and ideologies across national borders. Subjects covered include:
- Who joins radical right parties and why?
- Recent developments in parties in Eastern & Western Europe
- The transatlantic cross-fertilisation of ideological perspectives
- How the US extreme-right has changed since the emergence of the Tea Party movement
This will be essential reading for all students and scholars within an interest in the contemporary radical right and extremism.
