Why and how intensification of the activities of extreme right-wing groups in the West has become a major issue in security studies in recent years.  Despite the differences in the activities of these groups in the two geographies of Western Europe and North America as the main focal points of Western civilization, as the available evidence, suggests that the greatest opposition to Islam and Muslims is, in particular, in the agenda of both streams. Violent acts such as the burning of places and shelters of many refugees, including Muslims, as well as the scourge of honoring their religious sites are just two examples of the evident cases for this claim. Given the increasing role played by the sympathies of this extreme trend in the political transformations, which should be highlighted in the election of Donald Tramp as US President, is the study of the dimensions and strains found and hidden in this intellectual-political process, which has had great importance with other topics as new fascism. Therefore, in this article, by referring to the latest works and information and using the comparison method to distinguish the two main trends in the two geographies of North America and Western Europe, we attempted to deal with the activities of these groups. The main findings of this article suggest that, given the various historical and sociological traditions, there are quite different forms of radical rightwing revival in the two geographies. While in the United States, these streams have often religious tracks and it is essentially impossible to study them without regarding for religious variable, in Western Europe, the strong opposition to multiculturalism and the less emphasis on race and biological differences are the main focus of this group's activity.
