One of the first books to explore how the democratization of the public square on a global scale has caused a resurgence and successful transformation of hate groups across the webExamines the structure, discourse, and approaches of 25 leading hate websites ranging from blatant to invasive faux-social networks, racist political blogs, and even "encyclopedic" domainsLooks to some of the educational initiatives and organizations that are leading the critical anti-hate movementUnderscores the need for a digital social responsibility among today's web users and producers

Fanaticism, Racism, and Rage Online is a critical exploration of digital hate culture and its myriad infiltrations into the modern online community. The book examines radical movements that have emerged both on the fringes of the Internet, as well as throughout the web¿s most popular spaces where extremist voices now intermix with mainstream politics and popular culture. This investigation brings to light the different forms of extremist culture on the web, from the blatant hate websites, to the much more invasive faux-social networks, racist political blogs, and pseudo-scientific domains.
