Key Thinkers of the Radical Right: Behind the New Threat to Liberal Democracy
Description
This incisive collection examines the intellectual currents shaping the contemporary radical right and its growing influence on politics in Europe and the United States. Sixteen scholars introduce key thinkers—from established figures such as Julius Evola and Alain de Benoist to modern and emerging voices—exploring their lives, ideas, major works, and reception. Together, the essays illuminate debates over nationalism, identity, tradition, populism, and the future of liberal democracy without reducing these complex positions to political caricature. Clear, wide-ranging, and even-handed, the volume offers essential context for understanding the ideas behind one of the most consequential political developments of the twenty-first century.
