The Far Right in Australia: Historical insights and the current scene

Panellists for this event will include CRIS members Joshua Roose and Mario Peucker as well as Pam Nilan from the Alfred Deakin Institute and Raewyn Connell from the University of Sydney.

Raewyn will open the event by sketching the small Australian far-right scene in the 1960s, as seen in the book Politics of the Extreme Right, and they will also say a few words about classic European fascism and whether there's much continuity.
