Encyclopedia of White Power: A Sourcebook on the Radical Racist Right is a reference book edited by Jeffrey Kaplan. It focuses on the White Power movement, mainly U.S. groups and individuals (with a few Norwegian and Swedish groups and individuals also included).

In addition to contributions by academics, it includes entries by right-wing extremists themselves, as well as a section of primary sources. Kaplan's criteria for inclusion was that "the movements and individuals should be (i) strongly racialist, (ii) revolutionary, and (iii) have a strong religious streak." He approached contributors with the requirement that the authors "write an entry that would 'neither demonize nor proselytize, but would leave an accurate and unbiased historical record.'" It contains analysis of the organizations and philosophies in the white power movement and the inter-relationships that exist between the movement's leaders and groups.

It was published by Altamira Press, a division of Rowman & Littlefield Publishers, Inc., as a 585-page hardcover in 2000 (ISBN 0-7425-0340-2).

[edit] Quotation

"The demonization of the radical right ill serves us when now, more than ever before, it is vitally important to know all we can about this esoteric milieu's nature and potentialities by demonizing the many, we cloak the few, and, however unwittingly, facilitate the existence of evil in the world." —from the introduction by Jeffrey Kaplan
