CPEC 212 - Facing the Far Right (4 Cr.)
The resurgence of far-right extremism is one of the biggest challenges currently facing the European Union. The refugee crisis and the growth of Muslim communtiies in Europe has resulted in violent backlash from those who want to “preserve” a mythic European culture. In this course, we will examine the historical roots of white supremacy, xenophobia, and antisemitism and their contemporary manifestations. We will also evaluate the methods and motives behind these groups and measure their success in garnering broad support through traditional channels. Lastly, we will interrogate those solutions offered by both governmental and non-governmental bodies. Students are limited to one CPE course per semester. Offered spring 2021. Contreras.
