“The Identitarian movement represents a serious challenge to
contemporary Western democracies, though it remains mysterious to
most political observers. With The Identitarians, José Pedro
Zúquete has established himself as the world’s leading expert on
the subject. Thorough, dispassionate, and readable, The
Identitarians helps us make sense of this disruptive political
moment. It will be the most useful and important resource on this
subject for many years to come.” —George Hawley, University of
Alabama
"The Identitarians: The Movement against Globalism and Islam in
Europe describes the Identitarians as a 'quickly growing
ethnocultural transnational movement that, in diverse forms,
originated in France and Italy and has spread into southern,
central, and northern Europe' at the beginning of the 2000s." —The
Week
"José Pedro Zúquete provides a clear, thorough understanding of the
Identitarian movement: its origins, its connections to other
political/ideological traditions and movements, its beliefs, and
the actions its members have taken. It breaks new ground by
offering a comprehensive look at a phenomenon that is ongoing and
constantly changing. I believe this book will become the standard
reference for the Identitarian movement in Europe for a few years
and, depending on developments in the movement and Europe more
broadly, perhaps longer." —Ian Reifowitz, SUNY Empire State
College
“The book aims to let Identitarians talk with their own voices
about how they perceive the threats to Europe. José Pedro Zúquete
is one of the leading experts in this field and uses an impressive
variety of sources in several languages.” —Carlos de la Torre,
University of Kentucky
“From this perspective, Zúquete offers a highly analytical account
of the Identitarian movement in Europe—a movement that is diverse
in terms of its composition but united by its call for actions
aimed at defending Europe’s identity, integrity, and
distinctiveness.” —Choice
"José Pedro Zúquete's The Identitarians: The Movement against
Globalism and Islam in Europe is the definitive book on the
Identitarian movement." —Cas Mudde, author of The Far Right
Today
“Zúquete’s book describes the historical development of this
movement and provides thorough detail of the people who have
propagated these views (mostly) across mainland Europe (especially
in France and Italy).” —Process North
"[Zuquete's] coverage of the major players in the Identitarian
movement is comprehensive and his analysis is superlative. His book
will be of great interest to those people who want to know more
about a movement whose impact is likely to increase in the years
ahead." —The Journal of Social, Political and Economic Studies
"José Pedro Zúquete does us all a service in this detailed,
scholarly examination of what one strand of the European right, the
‘Identitarians’, do and think." —The Irish Catholic
