Abstract
This review evaluates Cynthia Miller-Idriss’ Hate in the homeland: the new global far right. Miller-Idriss’ six-chapter book offers a concise, yet thorough overview of the unique – and at the same time mundane – places and spaces at which extremist radicalisation takes place. Given her expertise in the subject matter, Miller-Idriss makes a compelling case for the mainstreaming of extremism that opens readers’ eyes to the global interconnectedness of today’s far right. The review will note the greatest strengths of the book, while emphasising its relevance for readers.
