Rural rage
In the United States, right-wing populism is a major factor in national politics, as evidenced by the election of Donald Trump as President of the United States in 2015. Right-wing populism is defined by an appeal to 'people' (usually white, heterosexual Christians) to rebel - against both liberal 'elites' from above and 'subversives' and 'parasites' from below - by engaging in a hardline brand of conservative politics. There are a variety of rig…

Reframing Populist Resentments in the Tea Party Movement
This chapter argues that Tea Party advances its agenda using the historic rhetoric, tropes, and frames of right-wing populism, especially the narrative called “producerism.” In right-wing producerist movements, activists tend to perceive their political adversaries through the lens of fear-based dualism (self versus other; us versus them) and demonization of the “other.” They claim their opponents threaten the very existence of the nation. In the…
Collectivists, Communists, Labor Bosses, and Treason
The Tea Parties are a right-wing populist movement echoing earlier episodes of white nationalism in the USA. Power elites have encouraged similar counter-subversion panics using populist rhetoric and producerist narratives to enlist a mass base to defend their unfair power, privilege, and wealth. Typically, a large, middle-class white constituency sides with organized wealth as a way to defend their relative and precarious position in society. Th…
Taking Tea Parties Seriously
The emergence of the Tea Party Movement after the election of President Barack Obama is the result of increasing anxieties, fears, and anger in a predominantly White middle class and working class constituency. Starting as a project of elite conservative strategists, the Tea Party movement quickly developed an actual mass base, and turned into the type of right-wing populist movement seen previously throughout US history. This article uses a soci…
Violence and public policy
Christian identity
Aggressively dualistic versions of the Christian Identity theology in the United States are accurately described as neo‐fascist. This study will examine one such group, Aryan Nations, to illustrate how Gentile's theory of fascism as a totalitarian system that promotes the sacralisation of politics, and Griffin's theory of fascism as a form of palingenetic trans‐class populism, are complementary; and fit into a broader scholarly trend that classif…
Militias in the Frame
mered starting in the early 1990s, burst into public awareness after the 1995 Oklahoma City (OKC) bombing, and now has largely seen its members seep back into the various conservative, libertarian, xenophobic, and racist movements from which it mobilized recruits. The many autonomous militia groups emerged as an armed wing of the broader patriot movement: an umbrella term to describe a range of right-wing organizations and political tendencies th…

Right-wing populism in America
Overview: Right-wing militias and other antigovernment organizations have received heightened public attention since the Oklahoma City bombing. While such groups are often portrayed as marginal extremists, the values they espouse have influenced mainstream politics and culture far more than most Americans realize. This important volume offers an in-depth look at the historical roots and current landscape of right-wing populism in the United State…
Eyes Right! Challenging the Right Wing Backlash
The violence of right‐wing populism
Government has become increasingly tyrannical. That's the belief that unites the diverse, right‐wing populist movement in the U.S. The armed militias constitute the militant wing of that movement. The core issues underlying the movement are anti‐government: members oppose taxes, gun control, and federal regulations while claiming to champion constitutional liberties—for themselves but not necessarily for others. Many militia members believe a sec…
