The author asserts that these patriots buttress their racial anxieties through safe, acceptable, nationalistic coding. Publisher Description Due to the economic globalization over the last 20 years, white workers have seen their racial dominance challenged and the security of their jobs assaulted, making them ripe for mobilization. "On the Fault Line" examines the US Patriot Movement - a broad, right-wing social movement that includes militias, 2nd Amendment activists, tax protestors, and individuals who drop out of the system. Carol Gallaher uncovers how the Patriot Movement addresses the conflicting social positions of its members - predominantly white, working class males. Arguing that discourses of patriotism obscure the class-based nature of their concerns, Gallaher asserts that these patriots buttress their racial anxieties through safe, acceptable nationalistic coding. While patriots have been mobilized by the right wing, this book presents potent reasons why the left could intervene, and to better effect. For all those interested in the fluctuating systems of power within the United States, Gallahers work proves to be a fascinating and unique analysis.
