'Morbid Symptoms provides a novel, interesting, and timely analysis of the contemporary far right. It is an impressive work of scholarship.' George Hawley, author of The Alt-Right: What Everyone Need to Know 'Owen Worth provides a much-needed historical and economic perspective to the study of present-day extremism. By lucidly tracing the differences and, importantly, the similarities to the development of and themes pushed by the far-right across the Western world, this book provides a useful guide to the emerging transnational nationalism. Without succumbing to the more dramatic and hysterical predictions for the future, Morbid Symptoms identifies the political danger of recent developments and, most intriguingly, hints at possible solutions.' Michael Wendling, author of Alt-Right: From 4chan to the White House 'Thoughtful and very timely. It captures much of what is contradictory in the relationship between the politics of the far-right and neoliberal world order and addresses some of the key questions, not only in terms of how we explain the rise of the far-right, but how the left/progressive forces should respond to it.' Dr Richard Saull, Queen Mary University of London
