About the Book

Traces the global spread of white nationalist and far-right terrorism, from the US to New Zealand to Norway. The massacre of more than fifty worshippers at mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand, shocked the world. The alleged perpetrator expressed a particular ideology described as "fascism," but what does fascism mean today--and what kind of threat does it pose? Jeff Sparrow traces the history of the far right around the world, showing how fascists have adapted to the new politics of the twenty-first century. He argues that the mosque killer represents a frightening new phenomenon--decentralized right-wing terrorism that recruits by committing atrocities, feeding on itself and spreading from country to country. Burgeoning in dark places online, contemporary fascism exults in violence and picks its targets strategically. Even the widespread despair generated by climate change is being harvested to weaponize young men with the politics of hate. With imitative massacres proliferating, this book makes a compelling, urgent case for a new response to an old menace.

Review :
"Sparrow convincingly argues that the more we understand about the last terrorist, the better we can prevent the next one." --Kirkus Reviews "With conceptual clarity and meticulous research, Jeff Sparrow has produced an indispensable guidebook to the intellectual and political sewers from which the Christchurch mass murderer emerged. Sparrow understands the role social media has played in the rebirth of fascism. He also understands that ideas matter." --Robert Manne, emeritus professor of politics and vice-chancellor's fellow at La Trobe University "Part history lesson, part detective story, part deep-dive into an online swamp, Fascists Among Us is essential reading for anyone who wants to take a stand against hate." --Scott Ludlam, former Australian Greens Senator "Jeff Sparrow charts the ideological underpinnings of fascism with uncommon clarity, demonstrating the importance of confronting the truth rather than retreating from its horrors. Read. This. Book." --Sisonke Msimang, author of Always Another Country and The Ressurection of Winnie Mandela "Lit with insight and urgency. Read it, just read it." --Chloe Hooper, author of The Engagement, The Arsonist, and Tall Man: The Death of Doomadgee "This short but incisive book builds to a stirring and well-argued conclusion...What Sparrow does so eloquently...is overtly link fascism, historically and theoretically, with political violence." FOUR STARS --Kelsey Oldham, Books + Publishing
