The resurgence of strong radical right-wing parties and movements
constitutes one of the most significant political changes in
democratic states during the past several decades, particularly in
Europe. The radical right's comeback has notably attracted interest
from political scientists, sociologists, and historians, although the
majority of past research focuses on party and electoral politics. In
contrast, _The Oxford Handbook of the Radical Right_ not only covers
existing literature, but also shows how the radical right forms
movements rather than parties. Editor Jens Rydren has gathered an
international cast of contributors to cover concepts and definitions;
ideologies and discourses; and a range of contemporary issues such as
religion, globalization, gender, and activism. Further, this volume is
one of few to provide a number of cases focusing on areas outside of
Europe, including Russia, the US, Australia, Israel, and Japan. By
integrating various strands of scholarship on the radical right that
covers different regions and different research perspectives, this
Handbook provides an authoritative and state of the art overview of
the topic and will set the agenda for scholarship on the radical right
for years to come.
