New Perspectives on the Transnational Right

The links the conservative Right has sought to forge beyond the national over the last century have been too often neglected, and this volume sheds new light on transnationalism, the Right, and the ways the two interact.

"Whilescholars have tracedforeign ideological influencesonrightist movements, theyhave tended tooverlook thetransnationalties that bindtogether groups they regard as nationalistic. By focusing on these connections, this bookis a pioneering contribution to the literature." - Sandra McGee Deutsch, Professor of History, University of Texas at El Paso

"At last, a book on the Right as a global political force. Its top-rate scholarship shows the full reach of fascist, conservative, and anti-egalitarian movements across national borders and continents." - Kathleen Blee, Distinguished Professor and Chair, University of Pittsburgh and author of Inside Organized Racism: Women in the Hate Movement

"This book is the first collection ever that specifically focuses on comparative transnational right-wing movements. It s a very exciting contribution to the growing literature on right-wing movements, co-edited by two leading scholars in the field." - Paola Bacchetta, Associate Professor of Gender & Women s Studies, University of California, Berkeley

"This fine collection brings together a wide range of innovative work on the extreme right. It asks new questions and proposes some stimulating answers. It will be essential reading not just for scholars of extreme right, but of the burgeoning field of internationalism, too." - Kevin Passmore, Reader in History, Cardiff University, UK
