The discourse on the strategies being employed to prevent right-wing extremism and xenophobia is largely dominated by a national perspective. If authors choose a comparative perspective, they usually focus on legal and legislative means in dealing with right-wing extremist parties (von Donsellar, 2003). Other, unorganized manifestations, such as right extremist and xenophobic youth cultures, as well as the preventative strategies relating to these, have so far attracted little attention in comparative European approaches. The current collection, which contains accounts from select European countries, aims to fulfill this gap., Against the backdrop of pivotal right-wing-extremist and xenophobic developments, these accounts take a look at their social treatment and the strategies that exist at different levels of society to counter them. A special emphasis is placed on both the forms of right-wing extremism and xenophobia that exist among young people, and the approaches applied in educational and social work. Of special importance are the experiences people have had working in this field and the ways the topic of evaluation is handled. The comparative approach of this volume is intended to show the similarities and differences that shape preventative practice in these countries. By examining neighboring European states, this collection also aims to uncover successful approaches and identify needs for further development in the respective national strategies. Furthermore, it offers inspirations for enhancing these strategies.
