The Far Right Beyond Electoral Politics

Abstract

The study of the contemporary far right is a predominantly party-centred discipline. Despite the growing real-world relevance of far-right movements online and offline, the collective action dimension of far-right politics remains a blind spot in comparative research. Most notably, while many recognise that far-right parties are part of a broader mobilisation process, few studies have gone beyond electoral politics to enquiry the issues and practices in the non-party sector of the far-right. This panel presents a number of papers that each tackle an important component of this question.
