Extremism

Berger, J. M. (John M.), 1967-2018
Books, Manuscripts
A rising tide of extremist movements threaten to destabilize civil societies around the globe. It has never been more important to understand extremism, yet the dictionary definition - a logical starting point in a search for understanding - tells us only that extremism is 'the quality or state of being extreme.' In this volume, J.M. Berger offers a nuanced introduction to extremist movements, explaining what extremism is, how extremist ideologies are constructed and why extremism can escalate into violence.
