Produktbeschreibung
This two-volume book considers from a risk perspective the current phenomenon of the new Alt-Right authoritarianism and whether it represents 'real' democracy or an unacceptable hegemony potentially resulting in elected dictatorships and abuses as well as dysfunctional government. Contributing authors represent an eclectic range of disciplines, including cognitive, organizational and political psychology, sociology, history, political science, international relations, linguistics and discourse analysis, and risk analysis. The Alt-Right threats and risk exposures, whether to democracy, human rights, law and order, social welfare, racial harmony, the economy, national security, the environment, and international relations, are identified and analysed across a number of selected countries. While Vol. 1 (ISBN 978-3-8382-1153-4) focusses on the US, Vol. 2 illuminates the phenomenon in the United Kingdom, Austria, France, Germany, Netherlands, Norway, Italy, Hungary, and Russia. Potential strategies to limit the Alt-Right threat are proposed.

Rezensionen
"This two-volume book is like building a tapestry. Threads are put together in a skillful and professional way to create a whole. But it is not decorative. It is as hard as it gets. It does not pull any punches in successfully raising consciousness about the Alt-Right and the threats it poses to democratic societies."-Emeritus Professor Antony A. Vass, Middlesex University, UK; Criminologist, Penologist, Legal Consultant, Sociologist, Psychologist, and Psychotherapist
