This book examines a wide array of phenomena that arguably
constitute the most noxious, extreme, terrifying, murderous,
secretive, authoritarian, and/or anti-democratic aspects of
national and international politics. Scholars should not ignore
these "dark sides" of politics, however unpleasant they may be,
since they influence the world in a multitude of harmful ways. The
first volume in this two-volume collection focuses on the history
of underground neo-fascist networks in the post-World War II era;
neo-fascist paramilitary and terrorist groups operating in Europe
and Latin America in the 1960s and 1970s; and the manipulation of
those and other terrorist organizations by the security forces of
various states, both authoritarian and democratic. A range of
global case studies are included, all of which focus on the lesser
known activities of certain secular extremist milieus. This
collection should prove to be essential reading for students and
researchers interested in understanding seemingly arcane but
nonetheless important dimensions of recent historical and
contemporary politics.
