In this first comprehensive comparison of left-wing violence in the United States and West Germany, Jeremy Varon focuses on America's Weather Underground and Germany's Red Army Faction to consider how and why young, middle-class radicals in prosperous democratic societies turned to armed struggle in efforts to overthrow their states. Based on a wealth of primary material, ranging from interviews to FBI reports, this book reconstructs the motivation and ideology of violent organizations active during the 1960's and 1970's. Varon conveys the intense passions of the era--the heat of moral purpose, the depth of Utopian longing, the sense of danger and despair, and the exhilaration over temporary triumphs. Varon's compelling interpretation of the logic and limits of dissent in democratic societies provides striking insights into the role of militancy in contemporary protest movements and has wide implications for the United States' current "war on terrorism."Varon explores Weatherman and RAF's strong similarities and the reasons why radicals in different settings developed a shared set of values, languages, and strategies. Addressing the relationship of historical memory to political action, Varon demonstrates how Germany's fascist past influenced the brutal and escalating nature of the West German conflict in the 60's and 70's, as well as the reasons why left-wing violence dropped sharply in the United States during the 1970's. Bringing the War Home is a fascinating account of why violence develops within social movements, how states can respond to radical dissent and forms of terror, how the rational and irrational can combine in political movements, and finally how moral outrage and militancy can play both constructive and destructive roles in efforts at social change.

Sinds de Tweede Wereldoorlog is België geregeld het doelwit van terreur. Niet alleen door links- en rechts-extremistisch geweld dat ?van binnenuit is gegroeid?, maar ook door gewelddaden die hun oorsprong vinden in buitenlandse conflicten. Dit boek brengt dit voor het eerst in kaart. Daarbij gaat ook ruime aandacht naar de context waarbinnen de terreur vorm kreeg.Het eerste deel schetst het verhaal van de zogenaamde extreemlinkse Cellules Communistes Combattantes. Het tweede deel behandelt het Front de la Jeunesse en de Vlaamse Militanten Orde, twee extreemrechtse private milities. Het derde deel gaat over politiek geweld in België dat onder meer voortvloeide uit het Israëlisch-Palestijns conflict, de Marokkaanse machtsstrijd en de Turkse kwestie.In een verhalende schrijfstijl en met een wetenschappelijke systematiek ontrafelt de auteur de dynamiek van polarisering en radicalisering die uitmondt in geweld.https://gompel-svacina.eu/product/terrorisme-in-belgie-polarisering-en-politiek-geweld/
