Abstract

At the intersection of political science, philosophy and geography, this panel seeks to shed new light on the spatial-temporal bases of populist and radical right mobilisations. Addressing a gap in the burgeoning literature on (right-wing) populism, the discussion will examine how both physical and virtual spaces interact in the (counter-)hegemonic making of a collective subjectivity and in the populist performance of the “people”. To this aim, the papers constituting this panel will focus on the transnational phenomenon of populist mobilisation in both physical and virtual spaces, drawing from various case studies of right-wing populist and far-right groups from both Central and Eastern Europe and Scandinavia.
