    fascism 4 (2015) 209-212 brill.com/fasc Book Review ∵ Mats Deland, Michael Minkenberg and Christin Mays, ed. In the Tracks of Breivik: Far Right Networks in Northern and Eastern Europe (Berlin/ Vienna: lit Verlag, 2014). Four years have already passed since Anders Behring Breivik, apparently single-handedly, committed the most murderous and destructive terrorist atrocity by the far right in post-war Europe. In 2011–2012, particularly during his criminal trial in Oslo, there was a lively public debate in in the Scandinavian media as to whether Breivik was a fascist, or represented some other permuta- tion of the contemporary European far right – an Islamophobic ‘counter-jihad- ist’; a militant, conservative nationalist; or a Christian extremist.1 Somewhat counterintuitively, since then relatively little scholarly attention has been devoted within comparative fascist studies to the implications of Breivik’s deeds, ideology, and self-proclaimed pan-European revolutionary movement. The title of this anthology – In the Tracks of Breivik – would suggest that its primary purpose is to map the far right networks of northern and eastern Europe in relation to the terrorist acts of July 22, 2011. Even if we realize that this formulation is an unfortunate literal translation of the Swedish phrase ‘i spåren av [Breivik]’ – for which a more idiomatic English rendering would be ‘in the wake of [Breivik]’, the implication would still be that the findings of the book are located in some direct relation to Breivik and his crimes. Even the promotional blurb on the back cover, as well as the opening and closing words of the introduction, reinforce this expectation.

  • British Fascism: a Discourse- Historical Analysis'

British Fascism: A Discourse-Historical Analysis. Explorations of the Far Right Series. Stuttgart: Ibidem, 2017. Illustrations. 307 pp. $45.00 (paper), ISBN 978-3-8382-1031-5. Reviewed by Joshua Cohen (University of Leicester) Published on H-Socialisms (October, 2019) Commissioned by Gary Roth (Rutgers University - Newark) Printable Version: http://www.h-net.org/reviews/showpdf.php?id=54281 Analyzing British Fascism When Colin Cross wrote "British Fascism ended in May 1940 and has not since been revived under that name," he correctly assessed that Sir Oswald Mosley's Union Movement (UM), formed in 1948, neither hid nor disowned its fascist past. Still, this reference to the past and "ex-fascists" implied acceptance of the UM's claim to have transcended fascism, that it went "beyond both fascism and democracy."[1] The idea of fascism as a historical phenomenon existing mainly in the past was expressed in Stanley Payne's assertion that fascism was "primarily limited to Europe during the era of the two world wars."[2] One of the most important contributions John E. Richardson makes in the excellent British Fascism: A Discourse-Historical Analysis is his repudiation of such analyses by demonstrating the long continuities within British fascism, its survival across the postwar period into the present, and, above all, the grave danger of regarding fascism as "over." He engages both with historiography and the "heuristic blind spot" of some political scientists that makes them reluctant to acknowledge contemporaneous movements as "fascist." For Richardson, this accounts for the continual formation of such myriad terms as "extreme right," "radical right," and "extreme right-wing populist"—he does not say it but "alt-right" suggests itself here too (pp.

NATO’s determination and solidarity in fighting the evolving challenge posed by terrorism has constantly increased since the Alliance invoked its collective defence clause for the first time in response to the terrorist attacks of 11 September 2001 on the United States of America. NATO has gained much experience in countering terrorism from its missions and operations. However, NATO cannot defeat terrorism on its own. Fortunately, we do not stand alone.

  • Accelerationism Theory
    CANADIAN ASSOCIATION FOR SECURITY AND INTELLIGENCE STUDIES VANCOUVER ACCELERATIONISM THEORY BRIEFING NOTE April 12, 2021 Disclaimer: This Briefing Note contains summaries of open sources and does not represent the views of the Canadian Association for Security and Intelligence Studies. Title: Accelerationsim Theory Date: 12/04/2021 Disclaimer: This briefing note contains summaries of open sources and does not represent the views of the Canadian Association for Security and Intelligence Studies. PURPOSE STATEMENT This briefing note examines accelerationism theory and its connection to several white nationalist groups that may be considered Violent Transnational Social Movements (VTSM), and the potential threats that accelerationism poses to national security and political stability. Since the mid-2010s, some members of the far-right and white nationalist movements have reportedly embraced and promoted accelerationism as a key component of their ideology using online forums (Anti-Defamation League, 2019; Beauchamp, 2019). This briefing note also examines the reported connections between accelerationism and acts of soft and kinetic violence committed against minorities, immigrant communities, Jewish communities, and governments (Beauchamp, 2019; Dearden, 2020; Waugh, 2019). THE SECURITY PROBLEM Several white nationalist groups that embrace accelerationism emerged in the late 2010s including Atomwaffen Division and The Base. Believers in accelerationism have recently been linked to several instances of soft and kinetic violence, which allegedly aim to de-stabilise existing social structures (Beauchamp, 2019; Dearden, 2020; Waugh, 2019). The continued online promotion of accelerationism poses a serious potential threat to minorities, immigrant communities, Jewish communities, and governments (Beauchamp, 2019). Accelerationists are often radicalised through easily accessible internet sources and encrypted chat rooms.
