'An essential primer for students, campaigners, policymakers and anybody else who wants to understand why the extreme right is a persistent and dangerous presence on the UK's political landscape.'
Daniel Trilling, author of Bloody nasty people: The rise of Britain's Far Right

'At last a comprehensive, lucid and highly readable overview of the radical right wing populist and fascist right in Britain. [...] A fundamental book for anyone concerned with or concerned by the 'far right' at any level of engagement with it.'
Roger Griffin, author of The Nature of Fascism (1991) and Fascism: An Introduction to Comparative Fascist Studies (2018)

Pride in prejudice offers a concise introduction to extreme right cultures in Britain today, exploring the origins of this complex movement and the numerous groups and activists that make up Britain's contemporary extreme right. Showcasing the latest research, Pride in prejudice demonstrates that the movement has a long history in Britain. Jackson evaluates successes and failures in policy responses to the extreme right, and identifies the on-going risks posed by lone-actor terrorism.

In order to tackle the extreme right, Jackson argues, we must not only make ourselves aware of the changing ways the movement operates, but we must understand how the extreme right legitimises its perspectives in mainstream discourses that can implicitly and explicitly support its racist and extremist views.
