"Essential reading for anyone interested in the dark side of American politics." - Michael Barkun, author ofReligion and the Racist Right, "Essential reading for anyone interested in the dark side of American politics." -Michael Barkun,author of Religion and the Racist Right, "An objective and credible collection from America's political extremes. The selections celebrate the range and diversity of political opinion in our country." - John George and Laird Wilcox, co-authors of Nazis, Communists, Klansmen and Others on the Fringe, "Disturbingly accessible...Presents the ideas, platforms and screeds of extremists of both left and right in their own words." -The Washington Post Book World, "A demonstrative primer of the intricate complex of themes and views that make up the modern history if American extremism." - The Los Angeles Times Book Review ,, "This reader provides a sobering antidote to the complacent belief that democracy nurtures rationality, tolerance and civilised values. Sargent's judicious choice of texts illustrates how both left and right-wing extremists commandeer democratic principles, moral language and logic itself for their own ends. The book is an invaluable resource for students of ideology and politics." -Professor Barbara Goodwin,author of Using Political Ideas and Justice by Lottery, "This reader provides a sobering antidote to the complacent belief that democracy nurtures rationality, tolerance and civilised values.

The selections celebrate the range and diversity of political opinion in our country." - John George and Laird Wilcox, co-authors ofNazis, Communists, Klansmen and Others on the Fringe, "In Our Bodies, Our Crimes , Flavin traces the life-and-death power that the little-examined patriarchal assumptions informing our common life can have--especially among poor, nonwhite women. Flavin . . . supplies a sobering primer on the laws and social constraints that keep women from fully controlling their bodies. The case studies she surveys in Our Bodies, Our Crimes make it painfully clear that the freedom to decide how and when to reproduce is, for a huge swath of American women, just as important as the much more fervidly discussed question of how and when women can choose not to reproduce." - Bookforum, "Disturbingly accessible...Presents the ideas, platforms and screeds of extremists of both left and right in their own words." - The Washington Post Book World, A demonstrative primer of the intricate complex of themes and views that make up the modern history if American extremism., ( "Flavin's book shows how American women, especially those who are poor or incarcerated, face societal pressure, stigma and even legal procedures in attempts to force them to become the "right" kind of mothers - if they are deemed worthy of motherhood at all." )-(),( Conscience: The Newsjournal of Catholic Opinion ), Disturbingly accessible...Presents the ideas, platforms and screeds of extremists of both left and right in their own words., "An objective and credible collection from America's political extremes.

Sargent's judicious choice of texts illustrates how both left and right-wing extremists commandeer democratic principles, moral language and logic itself for their own ends. The book is an invaluable resource for students of ideology and politics., ("Flavin set out to examine the policing of women's reproduction in various contexts, and she succeeds in doing so with a text that is exceptionally well researched and written in a style that is both readable and eloquent. This book would make a fine addition to a course dedicated to social-justice issues in women's lives.")-(Feminist Formations),(), "Bolstered by quotes and firsthand accounts, Flavin delivers eye-opening reports on topics including abortion rights, infant abandonment and battered women, detailing little-noticed or taken-for-granted policies that restrict and remand women. Written in a flowing academic style, Flavin's attention to historical detail and unfailing moral compass make her progressive reexamination of women's rights thorough and convincing." - Publishers Weekly (Starred Review), "A demonstrative primer of the intricate complex of themes and views that make up the modern history if American extremism." -The Los Angeles Times Book Review

Synopsis
Extremism takes many forms: racial, political, religious, economic. Despite the diversity of extremist thought, this collection of extremist ideologies and writings highlights the one thread that unites the various brands of extremism, whether leftist or rightist, historical or contemporary. The unifying motif is that there is always an enemy. The enemy can take the form of the government, communism, the patriarchy, African-Americans, gays and lesbians, men, welfare recipients, Jews, or corporations, but the presence of a clearcut ideological foe is always an intrinsic component of extremism. Providing a panoramic perspective on American extremism from the earliest days of the republic, the book is divided into thematic chapters, communism and anti- communism; race; social concerns, such as the family, education, and gender relations; economic matters, such as taxes and welfare; intentional communities, such as The Covenant The Sword and The Arm of the Lord; and organizations or individuals advocating radical decentralization, such as the Left Green Network or the Students for a Democratic Society. Familiar extremist forces--the Ku Klux Klan, the Aryan Nation, Phyllis Schlafly--here meet lesser-known forces to paint a vivid and powerful portrait of life and thought on the political fringe.
