Online Networks of Hate
IN BRIEF Online communities escape territorial boundaries yet build virtual borders of their own Extremist cultures can thrive in online spaces, evading national legal jurisdictions yet simultaneously operating locally and globally Public policy requires focused multilateral and multilevel cross-border governance coordination in law enforcement in conjunction with robust transparency and accountability mechanisms
Borders and Sustainability in the Anthropocene
IN BRIEF Climate change is a global issue that requires global cooperation. Despite this, contemporary international approaches to the climate crisis do the reverse by attempting to carve solutions into projects undertaken by nations within territorial boundaries. Public policy needs to work through existing international bodies and empower them to address the global crisis
Who Counts as Trans? A Critical Discourse Analysis of Trans Tumblr Posts
Internet and social media sites have long served as a rich form of community-building and knowledge exchange within transgender communities. In particular, Tumblr has become a popular site among trans youth in recent years.

As many scholars have noted, periods of economic or social unrest often bring about the growth or resurgence of extremist social movements on both the political left and the right.

Biometric security and screening systems have revolutionized border crossings. As bodies move across the physical space of the borderland, the border moves through them, scanning and cataloguing and scrutinizing bodies for irregularity. While such technologies have been scrutinized, they have largely been so through heteronormative and cisnormative lenses that fail to recognize the vastly different experiences of nonbinary, nonconforming, transge…
Networks of Hate
The “alternative right” or “alt-right” is a quintessentially twenty-first century phenomenon: a radicalized far right ideology that is proliferated and disseminated almost exclusively online with members drawn from all over the world. This paper argues that online debates within alt-right online communities about the acceptability of alt-right language and imagery are claims-making exercises that constitute examples of bordering processes. These …
‘Dirt, Death and Danger? I Don't Recall Any Adverse Reaction …’
Drawing on an ethnographic narrative written by one of the authors following his resignation from a hospital private security team in O ttawa, Canada and interview data gleaned from eight security men (all former colleagues), this article explores how hospital private security officers draw on discourses of masculinity to navigate the ‘dirty’ boundaries of their work, and to preserve their alpha‐guard statuses as controlled, autonomous and author…
