Extremism in the United States presents students with a collection
of articles that chronicle the development of violent white
supremacist extremism in the United States from the Know-Nothing
era to the January 6 insurrection. The book examines how right-wing
groups mobilized in the last half of the 20th century to become a
strong negative influence upon American society. The opening unit
discusses the diversity of extremism in America and in the world,
and how extremism has changed over time. Proceeding units examine
the American Eugenics Movement; the mobilization of white supremacy
through Neo-Nazis, Skinheads, and militiamen; the rise of the
Alt-Right in the United States; and strategies for resisting
extremism in the 21st century. In closing units, students read
articles on lone wolf offenders, internet radicalization, and ways
to combat white supremacist violence in the future. A timely and
contemporary resource, Extremism in the United States is an ideal
textbook for courses in sociology, criminal justice, and terrorism.
