Beschrijving:

It is the first time research has been done on the structure and motivations of the extreme right. Linden interviewed long and repeatedly 36 Right-wing activists. In this way they came to know what motivates people to get active and stay at an extreme right movement. Linden developed a method that made it possible motives, ideas and objects of this person to identify.

Its analysis shows that some of the outside is considered as a coherent whole, seen from inside a motley collection of groups and individuals with different motivations for engaging in extreme right. Moreover, Linden says that radicalization to effectively and quickly to tackle is to scrutinize the individual motives of activists.
