The Canadian Far-Right and Conspiracy Theories
This book provides an empirical analysis, mapping, and assessment of Canadian right‐wing extremist (RWE) groups and their conspiracy theories. While the majority of studies on RWE groups focus on American and European actors, this book critically examines conspiracies disseminated by Canadian actors on different online sites and social media platforms. The authors deploy a mapping metaphor to chart the conspiratorial ideas that RWE groups create and share online. The book also examines the infrastructural terrain that supports mainstream and alternative platforms and the dark monetization structures that act as important conduits for this negative messaging. Theoretically, the study is sit...
Conspiracy Theories and Extremism in New Times
Conspiracy Theories and Extremism in New Times outlines a cadre of alt-right groups, conspiracy theories, and other forms of stigmatized knowledge threatening our society. In an era dominated by the pervasive influence of social media, the scholarly gaze has often overlooked the ways far-right factions leverage these platforms to propagate anti-democratic ideologies. From the denial of the moon landing to the enigmatic labyrinth of QAnon, and a myriad of other alt-right groups in between, this anthology presents a compelling case for the continued relevancy of the Frankfurt School of Critical Social Theory. Uncover the intricate web connecting these ideologies to everyday life, and arm yourself with the critical insights needed to navigate the turbulent currents of our modern socio-political landscape.
José Antonio Primo de Rivera in Latin America
This book explores a distinctive neo-fascist movement that emerged in Latin America and Spain during the Cold War. At times self-labeled “Jose Antonians,” the book’s protagonists evoked the memory and ideology of José Antonio Primo de Rivera. The author first elucidates who this Spanish fascist was and why his memory loomed large among Latin American rightists. Second, the book explores how, by prompting political violence and jeopardizing democratization processes, these neo-fascist ideologues impacted their respective societies. In doing so, the book initiates a much-needed debate on fascist memory in the Cold War. This concise monograph will be of interest to researchers of transnational fascism, the Cold War, and Spanish and Latin American history.
Building Dictatorships under Axis Rule
This book offers a broad comparative perspective on regime building under Axis rule during the Second World War, exploring case studies in Europe and Asia. Military occupation represents the highest degree of political, social and economic control over an occupied state and its society. This collective book analyses how the three poles of Axis rule—Nazi Germany, Italian Fascism and Authoritarian Japan—lead the dynamics of institution-building of political regimes of occupation under their direct or indirect control. The contributions examine how the ideological, political and economic relationship between the occupying forces and different segments of national and local elites were prese...
How to Talk to Your Son about Fascism
How to Talk to Your Son about Fascism is a practical guide for parents, carers, and others with young men in their lives on how to talk with those young men about fascism and the right-wing, which specifically and particularly preys on them for recruitment. Its central goal is to present research, history, and analysis about how and why the right-wing recruits young men to parents, educators, and anyone with a young person in their lives. The book covers the history of right-wing recruitment of young men, explaining why the right-wing focuses on recruiting men both on a theoretical basis and through the logic of movement-building, and then moves to practical analysis and suggestions for how to counter recruitment today. Recommendations come from excerpts and existing scholarship. Readers will come out of the book with a better understanding of what fascism is and how it works, how it preys on young men, how it recruits and appeals to them, and how to stop this from happening. This book will be of interest to antifascist researchers and activists, as well as parents, carers, and the general reader concerned about the rise of the extreme right.
Dark Machines
This book offers a critical primer on how Artificial Intelligence and digitalization are shaping our planet and the risks posed to society and environmental sustainability. As the pressure of human activities accelerates on Earth, so too does the hope that digital and artificially intelligent technologies will be able to help us deal with dangerous climate and environmental change. Technology giants, international think-tanks and policy-makers are increasingly keen to advance agendas that contribute to “AI for Good” or “AI for the Planet." Dark Machines explores why it is naïve and dangerous to assume converging forces of a growing climate crisis and technological change will act syne...
