The Transnational Dimension of Contemporary Czech Neo-Nazism

Abstract

This paper describes and analyses the transnational dimension of the
contemporary Czech neo-Nazism. Basic terms, ideological concepts of
transnational neo-Nazi relations and the concepts and goals of European
transnational cooperation are explained in the first part. The spread of
various new organizations and campaigns (racial holy war, free nationalists,
anti-Roma mass riots, etc.) in transnational dimension is analyzed. Then the
organizational forms of the transnational relations are described. Last but
not least, the real foreign contacts of important neo-Nazi organizations
based in the Czech Republic (National Resistance, Autonomous Nationalists,
the Workers’ Party) are dealt with in the next part. Most of the important
foreign relations are identified (those with Germany, Slovakia, Poland,
Hungary). The impact of the transnational contacts on the Czech NS scene
and the perspectives of future transnational cooperation between the
Czech neo-Nazis and their foreign counterparts in the European context are
assessed.
