Kyle Burke is an assistant professor of history and Co-Coordinator of the Peace and Conflict Studies Program at Hartwick College. In this conversation, he discusses his book Revolutionaries for the Right: Anticommunist Internationalism and Paramilitary Warfare in the Cold War, which explores how an international network of right-wing individuals and organizations supported anticommunist guerrillas throughout the global south from the 1950s to the 1980s. Burke helps us trace the line between vigilante and state violence, and puts contemporary right-wing movements like Qanon and the January 6th Capitol siege in the wider context of American anticommunism.
