Description
Book SynopsisTacking between the United States and many other countries, Kyle Burke offers an international history not only of the paramilitaries who started and waged small wars in the second half of the twentieth century but of conservatism in the Cold War era.
Trade ReviewAn important book that contributes to a growing body of scholarship on the transnational dimensions of the far right. Its careful analysis of anti-Communist activism, from propaganda to paramilitarism, is relevant for anyone seeking a better understanding of the Cold War and insights into contemporary politics." -
Journal of Cold War Studies"Burke's book constitutes an exemplary exercise in transnational historical scholarship that illuminates the Cold War-era Right's vision, goals, and organizing in crucially important new ways that materially add to knowledge." -
Journal of American History"What distinguishes Burke's book from other works on the subject is his comprehensive description of the engagement of conservatives with international anti-communist movements." -
