Contemporary Far-Right Culture
Contemporary Far-Right Culture offers a comprehensive overview of the varied manifestations of today’s far-right culture. It examines how far-right extremists operate in the spaces they inhabit, exploring the key elements, characteristics, and historical background of far-right extremism. The volume also considers who produces and who consumes this culture, featuring contributions from emerging scholars in the field. Chapters investigate the cultural output of far-right influencers in anime, podcasts, “fashwave” and white power music, gaming, memetic and visual culture, social media, publishing, chan culture, philosophy, and martial arts.

Researching the Far Right
Researching the Far Right brings together researchers from across the humanities and social sciences to provide much needed discussion about the methodological, ethical, political, personal, practical and professional issues and challenges that arise when researching far right parties, their electoral support, and far right protest movements.

These reflections are set within a wider discussion of the evolution of far...
