Diese umfassende Einführung in den politischen Extremismus geht über eine reine Schilderung der unterschiedlichen Arten des Extremismus weit hinaus. Vielmehr bieten die Autoren einen systematischen Zugang zur Thematik und untersuchen die wesentlichen Fragestellungen. Die Darstellung der Forschungslandschaft und aktueller Konzepte, Theorien und Methoden der Extremismusforschung im ersten Teil dient dem Leser gewissermaßen als Werkzeugkasten. Im zweiten Teil werden unterschiedliche Extremismen - wie z.B. Rechts- und Linksextremismus sowie Religiöser Extremismus - klassifiziert und erklärt.

"Attempts by people to enact their political beliefs in their daily lives have become commonplace in contemporary US culture, in spheres ranging from shopping habits to romantic attachments. This groundbreaking book examines how collective social movements have cultivated individual practices of "lifestyle politics" as part of their strategies of resistance, and the tensions they must navigate in doing so. Drawing on feminism and other movements that claim that "the personal is political," the book explores how radical anarchist activists position their own lifestyles within projects of resistance. Various lifestyle practices, from consumption to personal style to sexual relationships, are studied to address how identity and cultural practices can be used as tools of political dissent.An accessible and provocative text, Lifestyle Politics and Radical Activism blends theory with empirical materials to highlight issues that are important not only to anarchists, but also to anyone struggling for social change. This unique analysis will contribute to the development of anarchist theory and practice and will appeal to anyone interested in political activism and social movements"-- Provided by publisher.

An exploration of the place of radical ideas and activity in English political and social history over three centuries. Its core concern is whether a long-term history of radicalism can be written. Are the things that historians label 'radical' linked into a single complex radical tradition, or are they separate phenomena linked only by the minds and language of historians? Does the historiography of radicalism uncover a repressed dimension of English history, or is it a construct that serves the needs of the present more than the understanding of the past? The book contains a variety of answers to these questions. As well as an introduction and eleven substantive chapters, it also includes two 'afterwords' which reflect on the implications of the book as a whole for the study of radicalism. The distinguished list of contributors is drawn from a variety of disciplines, including history, political science, and literary studies.
