Islamic Radicalism and Multicultural Politics : The British Experience
The expression of an Islamic political radicalism in Britain has been one of the most dramatic developments in recent decades.Islamic Radicalism and Multicultural Politics explores the nature of this phenomenon by analysing the origins of Islam and its historical contact with Western Europe and Britain, and the emergence of Islamic political radicalism in the Muslim world and in the West.Tahir Abbas draws on historical analysis and contemporary case studies to explore the post-war immigration and integration of Muslim groups, the complex relations that exist between a secular liberal Britain and a diverse but multifaceted Islam, and the extent of social and economic inequalities that affect Muslims as individual citizens and in local area communities.He shows how violent extremism among British Muslims is in reality influenced by a range of issues, including the factors of globalisation and contemporary politics, media and culture.Analysing and dissecting public policy, Abbas offers suggestions for tackling the major social, political and economic questions facing British Muslims in the post-7/7 era.An important contribution to the study of religion, ‘race’ and ethnicity in modern Britain, this accessible work will be of interest to anyone working in the field of Islamic studies, sociology and political radicalism.

Which form of radicalism is more dangerous: left-wing radicalism or right-wing radicalism?
Both left-wing and right-wing radicalism can be dangerous in their own ways. Left-wing radicalism often focuses on challenging existing power structures and advocating for significant societal changes, which can lead to disruptions and conflicts. On the other hand, right-wing radicalism tends to promote exclusionary and discriminatory ideologies, which can fuel hate crimes and violence against marginalized groups. Ultimately, both forms of radicalism can pose significant threats to social cohesion and stability, and it is important to address and counter extremism from all sides.

Is right-wing radicalism allowed?
Right-wing radicalism, like all forms of radicalism, is a complex and controversial topic. In many democratic societies, individuals are allowed to hold and express right-wing radical views as long as they do not incite violence or promote hate speech. However, there are legal limitations on certain forms of extremist behavior, such as advocating for violence or discrimination against specific groups. It is important to strike a balance between protecting freedom of speech and preventing harm to individuals or society.

Messianism, Zionism, & Jewish Religious Radicalism (Paper)
The Orthodox Jewish tradition affirms that Jewish exile will end with the coming of the Messiah.How, then, does Orthodoxy respond to the political realization of a Jewish homeland that is the state of Israel?In this study, the author probes Orthodoxy's divergent positions on Zionism, which range from radical condemnation to virtual beatification.Ravitzky traces the roots of Haredi ideology, which opposes the Zionist enterprise, and shows how Haredim living in Israel have come to terms with a state to them unholy and therefore doomed.Ravitzky also examines radical religious movements, including the Gush Emunim, to whom the state of Israel is a divine agent.He concludes with a discussion of the recent transformation of Habad Hassidism from conservatism to radical messianism.This work should be useful to those concerned with the complex confrontation between Jewish fundamentalism and Israeli political sovereignty, especially in light of the tragic death of Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin.

Brecht and Tragedy : Radicalism, Traditionalism, Eristics
This wide-ranging, detailed and engaging study of Brecht's complex relationship with Greek tragedy and tragic tradition argues that this is fundamental for understanding his radicalism.Featuring an extensive discussion of The Antigone of Sophocles (1948) and further related works (the Antigone model book and the Small Organon for the Theatre), this monograph includes the first-ever publication of the complete set of colour photographs taken by Ruth Berlau.This is complemented by comparatist explorations of many of Brecht's own plays as his experiments with tragedy conceptualized as the 'big form'.The significance for Brecht of the Greek tragic tradition is positioned in relation to other formative influences on his work (Asian theatre, Naturalism, comedy, Schiller and Shakespeare).Brecht emerges as a theatre artist of enormous range and creativity, who has succeeded in re-shaping and re-energizing tragedy and has carved paths for its continued artistic and political relevance.

Revolutionary Yiddishland : A History of Jewish Radicalism
Jewish radicals manned the barricades on the avenues of Petrograd and the alleys of the Warsaw ghetto; they were in the vanguard of those resisting Franco and the Nazis.They originated in Yiddishland, a vast expanse of Eastern Europe that, before the Holocaust, ran from the Baltic Sea to the western edge of Russia and incorporated hundreds of Jewish communities with a combined population of some 11 million people.Within this territory, revolutionaries arose from the Jewish misery of Eastern and Central Europe; they were raised in the fear of God and taught to respect religious tradition, but were caught up in the great current of revolutionary utopian thinking.Socialists, Communists, Bundists, Zionists, Trotskyists, manual workers and intellectuals, they embodied the multifarious activity and radicalism of a Jewish working class that glimpsed the Messiah in the folds of the red flag. Today, the world from which they came has disappeared, dismantled and destroyed by the Nazi genocide.After this irremediable break, there remain only survivors, and the work of memory for red Yiddishland.This book traces the struggles of these militants, their singular trajectories, their oscillation between great hope and doubt, their lost illusions-a red and Jewish gaze on the history of the twentieth century.
