It explores the spectrum of Heathen practice today and the historical origins of racist Heathenry in nineteenth century Germanic romanticism and twentieth century folkish nationalism. Treating each of the three main extremist Heathen organisations, the book extends the analysis to the neo-Nazi occult organization the Order of the Nine Angles (O9A), and the wider racist Heathen cultural scene in Black Metal and Dark Folk music. The authors balance this with discussion of how inclusivist Heathens are countering this discourse, from visible protests at far-right rallies to inter-faith forums and an active presence on social media platforms. The book makes an important contribution to the intersecting fields of new religious movements, nationalist history and racist politics. 606 $aHeathenry (Germanic paganism)$xPolitical aspects$zGreat Britain$3http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2022005886 606 $aHeathenry (Germanic paganism)$zGreat Britain$3http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2022005886 606 $aOccultism$xPolitical aspects$zGreat Britain$3http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85093821 606 $aOccultism$zGreat Britain$3http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85093821 606 $aRacism$xReligious aspects$3http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85110267 606 $aRadicalism$xReligious aspects$3http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2001007455 606 $aReligion and politics$zGreat Britain$3http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85112577 606 $aBritish Politics$2mup 606 $aReligion & Beliefs$2bicssc 606 $aPOLITICAL SCIENCE / Religion, Politics & State$2bisacsh 606 $aFar-right political ideologies and movements$2thema 615 0$aHeathenry (Germanic paganism)$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aHeathenry (Germanic paganism) 615 0$aOccultism$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aOccultism 615 0$aRacism$xReligious aspects. 615 0$aRadicalism$xReligious aspects. 615 0$aReligion and politics 615 7$aBritish Politics 615 7$aReligion & Beliefs 615 7$aPOLITICAL SCIENCE / Religion, Politics & State 615 7$aFar-right political ideologies and movements 676 $a299.94 700 $aAlessio$b Dominic$01854605 702 $aWallis$b Robert J. 801 0$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9911011861203321 996 $aFaith, folk and the far right$94451941 997 $aUNINA
