From Domestic Contestation to Alpha Male Foreign Policy
s How does masculinity inform the 2024 US presidential election and subsequent US foreign policy? To address this question, we develop the concept of phantasy of masculinity, an affectively charged imaginary that links normalized gender discourses with the narrative reconstruction of Self and Other(s), and that becomes increasingly regressive along a spectrum of intensification towards hypermasculinity. Analyzing official speeches and the media d…
The New Age of Myth
Political myths, the sacred narratives that legitimize power, are at the core of all political communities and organizations. In the post–World War II era, clear myths emerged around the ordering of the world, placing democracy, order, and peace at the idealized heart of global governance. Today, the international order is markedly changed. Previously dominant myths are routinely questioned and the international order that was built on these myth…
The positions of ontological (in)security in international relations
What is ontological (in)security? Recent scholarship on ontological security in International Relations has increasingly turned to the concept's theoretical origins in psychoanalysis and existential philosophy to address the field's (meta)theoretical limitations. This article argues that this development also necessitates an interrogation of the concept of ontological security itself to address the field's theoretical tensions. Further developing…
EU-UK relations after Brexit
In early 2021, the United Kingdom, facing the challenge of managing the COVID-19 pandemic, embarked on a push to vaccinate its population. This effort unfolded with public pressure to return the country to 'normal' life and the constraints of an urgent timeline, but also amid a tense 'vaccine war' with the European Union to determine the most effective vaccine, and then to achieve the swiftest rollout and widest distribution of vaccine doses. Tak…
The Politics of Fear and Hate
Critical security studies and emotion research in international relations have highlighted that the emotion of fear is a pivotal driver of material and psychological securitization processes and that political actors may attempt to instrumentalize fear to obtain their political objectives. This article suggests that complementing this focus on fear with closer attention to the emotion of hate provides significant analytical value and enhances our…
Liquid Fear, Agency and the (Un)conscious in Securitisation Processes
Scholarship on securitisation in International Relations is stratified into different strands of research that compartmentalise fear into narrow logics that focus on either its agential or unconscious aspects. We take Zygmunt Bauman’s notion of ‘Liquid Fear’ to develop a framework that offers a conceptualisation that allows for a more complex and nuanced understanding of the intricate relationship between the emotion of fear and agency, intention…
From Realpolitik to Gefühlspolitik
Studies on European narratives predominantly focus on which narratives about the EU exist and which are more salient for political actors and audiences. The question remains as to how political actors can strategically utilize those EU narratives at a national level to justify their decision-making and further their objectives. We argue that to render narratives efficacious in convincing audiences of the appropriateness of political decisions, ac…
Keep Calm and Carry on? Fissure, Perception, and Narrative Contestation Following the Demise of the Crown
On September 8, 2022, after more than 70 years on the throne, Queen Elizabeth II passed away. The responses among the public, media, and state institutions to the news were varied, with competing views on the role of the monarchy and the legacy of the queen. The questions this article seeks to answer are (1) how the monarch's death introduced a fissure into the United Kingdom's autobiographical narrative and (2) how exactly this moment led on the…
Narratives, Ontological Security, and Unconscious Phantasy
This article synthesizes scholarship on narratives and Kleinian defense mechanisms against anxiety to develop a framework that enables a nuanced understanding of ontological security‐seeking dynamics in times of crisis. Using the case study of the German narrative of the European Union during the so‐called migration crisis of 2015, this article engages with the broader question of how unconscious phantasy influences and guides decision‐making pro…
Stimmung and ontological security
Feeling the Heat
For over a decade, scholars of European studies have been studying a phenomenon referred to as the politicization of the European Union, usually defined as the intensification of a political debate, the polarization of opinions, and public resonance. This article extends existing explanatory models by offering a systematic theorization of the role of emotions in EU politicization to establish that emotions are integral to every step of the proces…
