In the age of Brexit and Donald Trump, the radical right has gained
significant popularity, characterized by a rhetoric of xenophobia,
discrimination and "hate speech". This book examines why the
politics of hate and ideologies of the far-right are on the rise
and argues that to counter it we must challenge the sense of social
and economic precarity this politics feeds off. Hate in Precarious
Times examines five distinct types of precarity, covering threats
to a particular way of life; fear of apocalyptic terrorism; the
insecurity of austerity, and low-waged jobs in the wake of the
Financial Crisis; challenges to privilege; and the spread of
disinformation in a "post-truth" age. In this book, Neal Curtis
seeks the root of what causes ordinary people to identify with
far-right ideologies and asks what can be done to counter the
conditions underpinning this.
