    "[Second Thoughts on Capitalism and the State is a] profoundly reflective book shows a pathway forward for academics and activists alike who are stymied by the disconnect between deep critical scholarship and emancipatory social change, yet who will still not give up the good fight."

Right Radicalism in Party and Political Systems in Present-day European States

This book explores a broad range of concepts of, and approaches to, far-right parties and ultranationalist ideology, and studies the legal and political discourses within which they are often embedded. Offering detailed insights into the nature of the far-right and its viewpoints, the book provides a multidimensional study of the evolution of the far-right and its impact on the contemporary European political and party system, society and state. In addition, a clear definition of the substantial amount of criminal far-right parties in the Annex of the book dispels the illusion that far-right ultranationalist groups do not represent a danger for both society and state. This book has several unique aspects, particularly its use of catalogues that allow for the researching of far-right parties and ideology according to concrete definitions.
