Overview

From Boogaloo Bois and Rassemblement National, to Nordic Resistance Movement and Forza Nuova, majoritarian ethnonational movements and extreme-right politics are growing in different national contexts and continue to challenge democratic norms around the globe. This collection brings together research by prominent senior scholars and up-and-coming junior researchers to present an up-to-date examination of the right’s resurgence in Europe and North America. Its chapters focus on movement-party intersections, social media, identity work, extremism, anti-immigration rhetoric, and theoretical approaches and methodologies to studying the right. Bringing together several studies originally presented as plenary talks at the annual Mobilization-SDSU conferences, the editors combine their expertise and draw upon their scholarly networks to offer a collection of research that will be significant for years to come. Each chapter is an important contribution that deepens our knowledge of right-wing contentious politics. They will be widely used by both sociologists and political scientists who are interested in current global trend of a resurgent and authoritarian right.
