Over the past few decades, extreme-right political parties have won
increasing support throughout Europe. The largest and most
sophisticated of these is the French National Front. Led by the
charismatic Jean-Marie Le Pen, the Front is now the third most
important political force in France after the mainstream right and
the socialists.This clear and comprehensive book explores the
antecedents for the meteoric rise of the National Front. Beginning
with a political history of the extreme right from 1945 to 1995,
Harvey Simmons traces links between Le Pen and French neo-fascist
and extreme-right organizations of the 1950s and 1960s, and
concludes with analyses of the Front's antisemitism, racism,
organization, ideology, language, electorate, and views on women.
Simmons argues that the Front is not a party like any other, but a
major threat to French democracy.
