In this year's events, we ask: What have been the major themes and patterns that brought us to this place? How can we understand our present condition? And looking forward a decade to 2036, what could the future hold?

Have a look at our introduction for this Interventions section I guest edited with my friend Elisabeth Moerking for @csosjournal. It comprises some great short-form creative interventions on the micro-, ordinary affective politics of global reaction.

In this new article, I argue that hegemonic defeatism is a key part of the mainstreaming of far right politics
We are told that the rise of the far right is considered irresistible and our only choice is about who will implement its politics

Ooh this looks interesting!
📣New open access publication in @JournalPolitics 📣
We talk a lot about pluralism as populism’s supposed opposite in populism studies, but what does pluralism actually mean? More importantly, what do we want it to mean? 🧵

Slightly delayed tweet, but it was great to hear @lizzypearson reference the brilliant former CIRAF member Kat Williams in her fascinating @BirthingNation talk on masculinity & the UK far right recently.
(Find more of Kat's work on women in the AfD here: scholar.google.com/citations…)
Could be a great new initiative

🔥 We have a new article out in @jepp_journal on far-right contentious politics. We tackle nativist mobilisation in the protest arena and its relationship with ‘crisis’ adopting short- as well as long-term perspectives.
Here’s what we found. 🧵
