The Caravan Magazine - January 2018
In this issue
Alt-Reich
The “alt-right”—a new white-supremacist movement—is gathering pace across the Western world, especially after the election of US President Donald Trump. At the centre of it is Arktos Media, a publishing house founded and fostered in India, that has organised meetings with powerful Indian politicians, and has links to radical right-wing parties across the globe. Its story is just one part of the overlooked Indian roots, both material and ideological, of the alt-right. Carol Schaeffer reports on the movement.
