Detalii:

nDuring the 1980s, as global antiapartheid sentiment grew, an international coalition of far-right activists arose to preserve racial hierarchy in South Africa and beyond. This groundbreaking book tells the story of how a transatlantic pro-apartheid movement attempted to defend white rule in South Africa--and forged enduring links between global conservatism and white power. n nBy mapping an international network of white supremacist organizations, Augusta DellOmo reveals a fundamental shift in far-right organizing in response to changing geopolitical realities. The pro-apartheid movement brought together a range of figures who sought to influence the conservative Western governments they saw as allies. As antiapartheid activism grew, the South African regime crumbled, and the post-Cold War order took shape, apartheids defenders adapted their ideology for a colorblind, human rights-centric, and neoliberal world. Their successes and failures shaped the antistatist trajectory of white supremacist organizing in the 1990s and beyond, planting the seeds for a global resurgence of the far right. n nSaving Apartheid ranges from Reagans Oval Office to South Africas bantustans and from white womens grassroots organizing to evangelical broadcasting, illuminating how an unlikely coalition reimagined white supremacy. Uncovering the surprising influence of apartheids defenders, this book offers a prehistory of the present.n
