In this seminar, we will critically examine the rise of the international New Right and its political impact, focusing on the global spread of right-wing populism, nationalism, and the shift toward authoritarianism. You will explore key topics such as the intersection of politics and entertainment (politainment), the emergence of post-truth discourses, and the role of social media in shaping ideologies. We will also investigate the transnational networks of the New Right, and how these movements challenge democratic norms, national identities, and cultural values.
This seminar provides a space for you to engage with current political developments, including the rise of figures like Trump and right-wing politicians in Europe, and to reflect on their impact on the world today. It is an opportunity to bring your own observations and concerns to the table, using cultural studies and political theory to make sense of current political, social, and cultural developments. |
