Over the last 20 years the post-war centre-ground which recognized the welfare state, the funding of education, protection of the environment and the management of capitalism as the proper business of the state, has fragmented. The New Left of the 1990s is more conservative than the Old Left of the 1960s and 70s. Emphasis on the freedom of the individual and the proper limitations of state power has changed the climate of everyday life. For Dahl, the genocide in the former Yugoslavia and the bombing in Oklahoma City, each bear the traces of the new 'radical conservatism'. Even countries in the

"On the morning of November 22, 1963, President Kennedy told Jackie as they started for Dallas, "We're heading into nut country today." That day's events ultimately obscured and revealed just how right he was: Oswald was a lone gunman, but the city that surrounded him was full of people who hated Kennedy and everything he stood for, led by a powerful group of ultraconservatives who would eventually remake the Republican party in their own image. In Nut Country, Edward H. Miller tells the story of that transformation, showing how a group of influential far-right businessmen, religious leaders, and political operatives developed a potent mix of hardline anticommunism, biblical literalism, and racism to generate a violent populism--and widespread power. Though those figures were seen as extreme in Texas and elsewhere, mainstream Republicans nonetheless found themselves forced to make alliances, or tack to the right on topics like segregation. As racial resentment came to fuel the national Republican party's divisive but effective "Southern Strategy," the power of the extreme conservatives rooted in Texas only grew. Drawing direct lines from Dallas to DC, Miller's captivating history offers a fresh understanding of the rise of the new Republican Party and the apocalyptic language, conspiracy theories, and ideological rigidity that remain potent features of our politics today."--Jacket

​Geschichtspolitik und geschichtspolitische Debatten sind für die extreme Rechte zentraler Bestandteil ihrer Politik. Zahllos sind die Veröffentlichungen zu historischen Themenstellungen. Zentral sind oft spezifische Orte, die im Sinne Pierre Noras als Erinnerungsorte (lieu de mémoire) bezeichnet werden können. Sie werden von Seiten der extremen Rechten nicht nur politisch-inhaltlich mit Bedeutung aufgeladen, sondern erfüllen zudem eine symbolische Funktion und wirken gemeinschaftsstiftend. Der Band stellt quellennah ausgewählter Beispiele zentraler Erinnerungsorte der extremen Rechten vor, analysiert deren symbolischen Gehalt und dekonstruiert die damit verbundenen Deutungsmuster.

This book contends that far-right parties play pivotal roles in setting the tone of political debates, shaping the political party system, and structuring government policy. Increasingly, as national governments attempt to cope with new realities of greater global migration, strained welfare states, and threats of foreign terror, opportunities have opened for parties of the far right to position themselves strategically.
