<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"This is the first study of the far right's role in the climate crisis, presenting an eye-opening sweep of a novel political constellation, revealing its deep historical roots"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Rising temperatures and the rise of the far right. What disasters happen when they meet?</b> <p/>In the first study of the far right's role in the climate crisis, <i>White Skin, Black Fuel</i> presents an eye-opening sweep of a novel political constellation, revealing its deep historical roots. Fossil-fuelled technologies were born steeped in racism. No one loved them more passionately than the classical fascists. Now right-wing forces have risen to the surface, some professing to have the solution--closing borders to save the nation as the climate breaks down. <p/> Epic and riveting, White Skin, Black Fuel traces a future of political fronts that can only heat up.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"This bold and richly detailed study of far-right approaches to climate change is a revelation. Its admirably transnational reading of urgent political priorities could not be more timely."<br><b>--Geoff Eley, author of <i>Nazism as Fascism</i></b> <p/> "A highly engaging study, full of startling anecdotes and witty reflections. If you want to understand the political obstacles that will face climate action in the coming decades, <i>White Skin, Black Fuel</i> is a must-read."<br><b>--Cara Daggett, author of <i>The Birth of Energy</i></b> <p/> "A beautifully written, passionate, richly researched warning about fossil fascism--and its mutant offspring, ecofascism.

And it persuasively explains why climate disaster only reinforces denialism on the right. An essential insight into an emerging threat."<br><b>--Richard Seymour, author of <i>Corbyn</i></b> <p/>"<i>White Skin, Black Fuel</i> is a beautifully written, passionate, richly researched warning about fossil fascism--and its mutant offspring, ecofascism.
