Der neue Nazismus kommt metaphysischer daher als der alte. Es beginnt in den 1970er Jahren und verstärkt sich in den 1990ern: militante Fremden- und Minderheitenfeinde reichern ihre Propaganda mit Elementen des Mystischen, Esoterischen, ja fast Religiösen an. Konspirative Kulte und Geheimlehren sollen dem eigenen Tun – und dem der bewunderten Vorgänger – höhere Weihen verleihen. Der Autor hat den rechtsradikalen Untergrund umfassend erforscht. In vielen Gesprächen erkundete er die Weltanschauung...
