Anti-Islamic protest in the UK: policy responses to the far right

Demonstrations by far-right groups, such as the English Defence League, Britain First, and PEGIDA, have caused considerable social and civic unrest in UK cities for nearly a decade.

But how should policymakers respond to far-right and anti-Muslim activism?

Drawing on extensive primary research with stakeholders, local authorities and policymakers, this book investigates the political, socio-economic, and historic trends that fuel this form of political extremism across the UK.
