Extremism, Society, and the State

by Giacomo Loperfido (Editor)

Extremism does not happen in a vacuum. Rather, extremism is a relative concept produced in marginal spaces and defined as dangerous by mainstream culture. This collected volume brings together leading anthropologists and cultural analysts to offer a concise look at the narratives, symbolic, and metaphoric fields related to extremism, systemitizing an approach to contemporary extremism by placing these idealogies into historical, political, and geo-systemic contexts.
