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.

Prof. Dr. Uwe Backes ist Stellvertretender Direktor des Hannah-Arendt-Instituts für Totalitarismusforschung und lehrt an der TU Dresden an der TU Dresden.
