political extremism
Governmental action on behalf of the independent retailers and craftsmen contributed to a large extent to their final rejection of right-wing extremism.
If the aggregate level of personal and political alienation is extensive, then the underlying growth potential for right-wing extremism appears great.
The official representatives of right-wing extremism did not follow people in the streets, neither did they start a process of modernisation.
But frequently they exceed the program in extremism because of their desire to attain independence of their lands by the quickest means.
We first test whether ideological extremism varies systematically with socio-economic characteristics of the nation.
What accounts for the finding that average party policy extremism does not systematically increase with electoral system proportionality and with the number of parties?
The extremism scale had three categories: centre (1), centre-left or centre-right (2), far-left/far-right (3).
The chapter on extremism is an especially instructive, and quite sobering case study.
