Varieties of Right-Wing Extremism in Europe by Andrea Mammone,Emmanuel Godin,Brian Jenkins Pdf

Beginning with an analysis of the complex relationship between fascism and the post-war extreme right, the book discusses both contemporary parties and the cultural and intellectual influences of the European New Right as well as patterns of socialization and mobilization. It then analyses the effects of a range of factors on the ideological development of right-wing extremism including anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, religious extremism and the approach towards Europe (and the European Union).The final sections investigate a number of activist manifestations of the extreme right from youth participation and the white power music scene to transnational rallies, the Internet and football hooliganism. In the process, the book questions the notion that the contemporary extreme right is either completely novel or fully populist in character. Drawing together a wide range of contributors, this is essential reading for all those with an interest in contemporary extremism and fascism. The book is a companion volume to Mapping the Extreme Right (Routledge, 2012) which has the same editors.

The Extreme Right in Europe by Uwe Backes,Patrick Moreau Pdf

The present work deals not only with the well-organized right extremism in modern Europe as well as with its function in proper political parties, but equally includes two additional, broader approaches: the militant branches and subcultures that exist, including some paramilitary phenomena in Eastern Europe; and the broad realm of their political ideas and cultural trends and the influence they exert on European political culture.

Politics of the Extreme Right by Paul Hainsworth Pdf

Fascist, authoritarian, anti-Semitic and extremist movements made a powerful and devastating contribution to the 20th century. While the experiences of the 1930s and 1940s served to delegitimise such forces, contemporary Europe and the USA have witnessed the resurgence of extreme right-wing politics. Rapid socio-economic change, the appeal of nationalism, the failures of mainstream political parties and intense campaigning around issues such as immigration, security and unemployment have all fuelled the phenomenon. This book, a sequel to The Extreme Right in Europe and the USA, provides a comprehensive and analysis of the nature and prevalence of extreme right movements in Europe – both West and East – and in the USA at the turn of the millennium. The authors reveal the uneven process of extreme right-wing revival, which has varied from country to country depending on specific political cultures and circumstances, with some movements confined to the margins while others have moved towards the political mainstream. They examine the ideas, policies, personalities, organizations, voters and reasons for the success of extreme right-wing movements in a range of countries, as well as providing a more general examination of the nature and politics of the extreme right.

The Extreme Right in Europe and the USA by Paul Hainsworth Pdf

The rise of extreme right parties and neo-fascist movements in recent years as a response to economic crisis has become a major concern for most European countries. The phenomenon is likely to increase, as more disillusioned and discontented sectors of the population become drawn towards intense nationalism and the scapegoating of 'foreigners'. Paul Hainsworth has assembled a team of experts in the field to present a comparative, empirical assessment of the historical evolution, nature and extent of the extreme right in Europe and the United States from the 1940s to the early 1990s. This volume evaluates the nature and influence of the extreme right in the post-war context.

The Dark Side of Europe by Geoff Harris Pdf

Fascism cannot be treated as an isolated historical or political phenomenon, relevant only to certain countries at certain times. In the difficult economic and social circumstances of the 1970s and 1980s old ideas have found a new audience, and whilst democracy may not face an immediate challenge, a considered approach to racism and fascism will be needed if the new Europe of the 1990s is not to provide an opportunity for a pan-European extreme right revival. Racism, the rewriting of history, the new right, terrorism and secret service corruption are looked at comparatively. For the first time in English a detailed analysis of the Le Pen phenomenon in France and extreme right terrorism in Italy is offered; the similarities with developments in other European countries are brought out. The author provides detailed inside knowledge of how the European institutions have responded and looks at some of the implications for society and politics of the 1992 project and the continuation of immigration into Western Europe.

Right Radicalism in Party and Political Systems in Present-day European States by Natalia Eremina,Sergei Seredenko Pdf

This book explores a broad range of concepts of, and approaches to, far-right parties and ultranationalist ideology, and studies the legal and political discourses within which they are often embedded. Offering detailed insights into the nature of the far-right and its viewpoints, the book provides a multidimensional study of the evolution of the far-right and its impact on the contemporary European political and party system, society and state. In addition, a clear definition of the substantial amount of criminal far-right parties in the Annex of the book dispels the illusion that far-right ultranationalist groups do not represent a danger for both society and state. This book has several unique aspects, particularly its use of catalogues that allow for the researching of far-right parties and ideology according to concrete definitions.

Contemporary Ukraine on the Cultural Map of Europe by Larissa M. L. Zaleska Onyshkevych,Maria G. Rewakowicz Pdf

The concept of a 'return to Europe' has been integral to the movement for Ukrainian national rebirth since the nineteenth century. While the goal of a more fully reformed politics remains elusive, numerous expressions of Ukrainian culture continue to develop in the European spirit. This wide-ranging book explores Ukraine's European cultural connection, especially as it has been reestablished since the country achieved independence in 1991. The contributors discusses many aspects of Ukraine's contemporary culture - history, politics, and religion in Part I; literary culture in Part II; and language, popular culture, and the arts in Part III. What emerges is a fascinating picture of a young country grappling with its divided past and its colonial heritage, yet asserting its voice and preferences amid the diverse and at times conflicting realities of the contemporary political scene. Europe becomes a powerful point of reference, a measure against which the situation in post-independence Ukraine is gouged and debated. This framework allows for a better understanding of the complexities deeply ingrained in the social fabric of Ukrainian society.

The Claim to Christianity by Hannah Strømmen,Ulrich Schmiedel Pdf

The far right is on the rise across Europe, pushing a battle scenario in which Islam clashes with Christianity as much as Christianity clashes with Islam. From the margins to the mainstream, far-right protesters and far-right politicians call for the defence of Europe’s Christian culture. The far right claims Christianity. This book investigates contemporary far-right claims to Christianity. Ulrich Schmiedel and Hannah Strømmen examine the theologies that emerge in the far right across Europe, concentrating on Norway, Germany and Great Britain. They explore how churches in these three countries have been complicit, complacent or critical of the far right, sometimes intentionally and sometimes unintentionally. Ultimately, Schmiedel and Strømmen encourage a creative and collaborative theological response. To counter the far right, Christianity needs to be practiced in an open and open-ended way which calls Christians into contact with Muslims.
