Tomorrow Belongs to Us: The British Far Right Since 1967
Edited by Nigel Copsey and Matthew Worley
(Routledge, £24.99)
AS IF we needed reminding, the interconnections between racism and the rise of the far right have been causing concern across Europe and beyond and this was demonstrated so clearly in the Morning Star’s recent review of Liz Fekete’s excellent book Europe’s Fault Lines: Racism and the Rise of the Far Right.
Tomorrow Belongs to Us focuses more specifically upon the far right in Britain since the formation of the National Front (NF) in 1967, although the collection does include a chapter exploring attempts to export the NF elsewhere, to Australia, New Zealand and South Africa.
