This handbook on racist extremism in Central and Eastern Europe is the result of a unique collaborative research project of experts from the ten new and future post-communist EU member states. All chapters are written to a common framework, making it easier to compare individual countries and include sections on:
- Racist extremist organizations (political parties, organizations, and subcultures)
- The domestic and international legal framework
- Numbers and types of racist extremist incidents
- State and civic responses to the threat
Cas Mudde's conclusion examines the region as a whole and compares it to Western Europe.
Sponsored by the Open Society Institute, this book will prove essential reading for all academics and non-academics interested in this vital aspect of post-communist politics and societies. It will also provide a significant impetus for further studies and actions in the field of racist extremism in Central and Eastern Europe.
