Cas Mudde
n this interview, Cas Mudde, one of the most influential political scientists in the United States and an international reference in the study of populism and right-wing extremism, criticizes the concept of populism and emphasizes why his current work is focused on the concept of far-right. Mudde also compares the far-right in the Global South and the Global North and explains what he understands by mainstreaming and normalization. Finally, the p…
Intersectional Repertoires of Coping with Political Violence
Violence against elected representatives—be it physical or psychological, online or offline, threatened or realized—undermines democracy. This is particularly the case when violence targets politicians from historically underrepresented groups, whose members may choose not to run for office, self-censor, or drop out. Based on interviews with twenty-three former and current members of the German Bundestag with a migration background, our explorato…
Theorizing exclusionary and inclusionary people-making
The article offers a normatively-informed theorization of people-making as a (blocked) collective learning process. More specifically, people-making, namely the mobilization of individuals into a collective actor, draws symbolic boundaries around the sovereign, thereby contributing to the imagination of ‘the people’ in more inclusionary or exclusionary ways. To account for differences along this continuum, Habermas’ notion of collective learning …
The 'Arab Clans' Discourse
In the last decade's media discourse, particular Arab immigrant groups received the name 'Arab clans' and have been portrayed as criminal kinship networks irrespective of actual involvement in crime. We question how 'Arab clans' are categorized, criminalized, and racialized in the German media. To answer this question, we collected clan-related mainstream media articles published between 2010 and 2020. Our first-step quantitative topic modeling o…
The Narrative Foundations of Radical and Deradicalizing Online Discursive Spaces
Radical/extremist Islamist actors use social media to disseminate uncompromising stories of monist religious political orders and identities. As a reaction, counter-movements to online Islamist radicalism/extremism emerged in Western societies (and beyond), while uncertainty about effective outcomes remains widespread. In a bid to understand how inclusionary and exclusionary discursive spaces are created, we ask: How do some Muslim actors create …
De/legitimising EUrope through the performance of crises
This article illuminates the far-right populist Alternative for Germany's (AfD) performances of delegitmisation vis-à-vis EUrope and legitmisation of itself/the nation by articulating two paradigmatic, transnational crises: climate change and COVID-19. It asks: ‘how does the far-right AfD perform these two crises to legitimise itself and delegitimize others?’ and ‘what similarities/differences exist between the performance of these two crises in …
The Great Secession
Germany is facing a contemporary mainstreaming of the far right, which has a long tradition of wanting “Turks out!” Turkish immigrants have been the main strangers in Germany following the guest-worker treaty signed in 1961, physically close as friends, yet culturally distant as foes. From September 2015 onwards, German–Turkish politics of belonging, the Turkish issue, underwent a contentious period resulting in secessions between German and Turk…
Games of Belonging
International football is a field for national identity performances in which narratives of national belonging are articulated. Games of belonging capture discourses on and debates over national belonging. Up-and-coming national football team diversity, and its public promotion, was expected to facilitate boundary blurring in the politics of belonging; however, it caused highly contentious debates revolving around the question of who belongs to G…
