Title: Black Sun
First published: August 1, 2001
Description: "More than half a century after the defeat of fascism, the far right is again challenging liberal democracy. Since the 1980s, radical movements have been feeding on anxiety about economic globalization, big government, affirmative action, and third-world immigration. The Aryan racial myth, anti-Semitism, occultism, and oriental religion supply a revolutionary rationale to groups who feel threatened by a loss of cultural tradition and identity in multicultural societies.".

"Black Sun examines the new neofascist ideology, showing how hate groups, militias and conspiracy cults attempt to gain influence. Based on interviews and extensive research into underground groups, Black Sun documents the new Nazi and fascist sects that have sprung up from the 1970s through the 1990s and examines the mentality and motivation of these far-right extremists.

The result is a detailed, grounded portrait of the mythical and devotional aspects of Hitler cults among Aryan mystics, racist skinheads and Nazi satanists, heavy metal music fans, and in occult literature."--BOOK JACKET.
