520 1 $a"Confronting Right-wing Extremism and Terrorism in the USA provides a detailed portrait of the contemporary extreme right in the US, and includes interviews with several of the movement's leading figures from groups such as the Ku Klux Klan, the militias, American Renaissance and White Aryan Resistance. The author persuasively explains how the activities of these racist groups have been curbed due to the campaigning efforts of anti-racist and anti-fascist watchdogs. This study draws upon declassified government documents, NGO reports and extremist literature to provide a thought-provoking account of the extreme right challenge in America. It will provide an invaluable resource to students of terrorism, political violence and right-wing extremism, as well as appealing to the general reader with an interest in contemporary American politics."--BOOK JACKET.
