About this book
Altemeyer begins by closely examining the scientific literature on right-wing authoritarianism. This timely volume surveys the history of social psychological research on right-wing authoritarianism and describes a more fruitful direction for future work. It concludes with a disturbing comment on the pervasiveness of authoritarian behaviour in our society.
