This handbook on racist extremism in Central and Eastern Europe is the result of a unique collaborative research project of experts from the ten new and future post-communist EU member states. All chapters are written to a common framework, making it easier to compare individual countries and include sections on:

racist extremist organizations (political parties, organizations, and subcultures

the domestic and international legal framework

members and types of racist extremist incidents

state and civic responses to the threat.

Mudde's conclusion examines the region as a whole and compares it with Western Europe.
