Right-Wing Women From Conservatives to Extremists Around the World [Paperback]

An oft-neglected subject, right-wing women are an important component in understanding the many racist, fascist, and anti-feminist movements of the 20th century. Providing original research on an array of right-wing groups around the world, the contributors paint a disturbing and complicated portrait of the women involved in these movements. From Mussolini supporters to Klanswomen, this collection provides an eye-opening look at extremist women.Paola Bacchettais Associate Professor in the Departments of Women's Studies and Geography at the University of Kentucky.
