'Hardliners' and extremists- radicalism from the left to the far right

Book

15/03/2017

How should we define the radical movements on both sides of the political spectrum? Are there any similarities between the groups on the “left” and the so-called “right”?

Are they increasing in popularity? The analysis contained within this book, which includes extracts from a public meeting held at the Jean-Jaurès Foundation on 18th May 2016 under the supervision of the Research Centre for political radicalism, provide key insights which allow the reader to understand the movements, their differences, as well as provide them with an accurate and useful overview of political radicalism in France.
