Black Sun: Aryan Cults, Esoteric Nazism, and the Politics of Identity.

New York: New York University Press, [ 2003 ]. Paperback edition. Softcover. Large octavo. vi + 372pp. Notes and index, with b&w illustrations. From the publisher: "Nicholas Goodrick-Clarke offers a unique perspective on far right neo-Nazism viewing it as a new form of Western religious heresy. He paints a frightening picture of a religion with its own relics, rituals, prophecies and an international sectarian following that could, under the proper conditions, gain political power and attempt to realize its dangerous millenarian fantasies. Black Sun examines the new neo-fascist ideology, showing how hate groups, militias and conspiracy cults attempt to gain influence. Based on interviews and extensive research into underground groups, Black Sun documents the new Nazi and fascist sects that have sprung up from the 1970s through the 1990s and examines the mentality and motivation of these far-right extremists. The result is a detailed, grounded portrait of the mythical and devotional aspects of Hitler cults among Aryan mystics, racist skinheads and Nazi satanists, Heavy Metal music fans, and in occult literature." Light bump and creases to upper corner, light rubbing to covers, crease to spine, otherwise a tight clean VG+ copy. Item #61026
