John J. Stephan uncovers the ideological contradictions, internal power struggles, and tragicomic ambitions of organizations like the Russian Fascist Party, whose leaders dreamed of reclaiming their homeland from Soviet rule while remaining largely irrelevant to the broader currents of world history. With sharp analytical precision and an eye for the absurd, Stephan illustrates how these exiled movements borrowed heavily from European fascism while adapting its rhetoric to a distinctly Russian nationalist vision steeped in anti-communism and Orthodox tradition. The tone balances scholarly rigor with a wry awareness of the inherent farce in these grandiose yet impotent political ventures, making it as compelling as it is authoritative. This landmark study remains an essential text for anyone seeking to understand the fractured world of Russian political exile and the far-reaching shadow cast by the Bolshevik Revolution.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48887881498843,"sku":"2026200007230-SECONDHAND","price":80.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/d075580d-24ef-4129-be75-fa011b1575e9.png?v=1781747670","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200007230-secondhand-the-russian-fascists-tragedy-and-farce-in-exile-1925-1945","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
