The extreme nationalist threat in Russia

the long version

"This book examines the nature of the extreme right in contemporary Russia, arguing in particular that, alongside a continuing tradition which emphasises Russia's orthodox and traditional past, an increasingly important intellectual current is drawing on western European neo-fascist ideas and adapting them to the Russian situation. This book examines this intellectual current within the context of increasing conservatism across Russia as a whole, showing how the new ideas have an impact right across the political spectrum, and assessing the threat posed by the new ideas and the proponents of them."--BOOK JACKET.
