This book analyzes key popular culture artifacts linked with United
States' far-right extremism to illustrate how extremists use
various narrative strategies to legitimate their interests and
goals and to justify violent actions. Recognizing these narrative
strategies and how they are used partly explains the back and forth
moves between mainstream politics and the far-right of ideas and
issues that used to remain within far-right circles. The main
objective of this book is to utilize theoretical approaches that
centralize processes of racialization to analyze and explain how
far-right extremists utilize recognizable narratives to mainstream
and communicate their ideas. The book will illustrate processes by
which racialized subjects are produced and violence justified. In
order to do so, the book concentrates on popular culture as sources
of how the far-right constitutes their identities and goals. It
first develops a methodological plan to study popular culture
artifacts that is drawn from scholarship on race and discourse
analysis in International Relations (IR). It then analyzes
far-right use of key popular culture artifacts, such as magazines,
memes, and manifestos, to note how extremist identities and
interests are produced, publicly communicated, and mainstreamed.
This will contribute to Security Studies and IR's understanding of
far-right extremism, especially how they utilize similar narrative
strategies as used in mainstream contexts to justify their calls
for violence.
