Celebrations, Exaltations and Alpha Lands: Everyday geographies of the far-right

There is a gap in research that considers, and spatializes, the everyday geographies of far-right encounters, socialization, recreation leisure. While much considers end-stages right-wing radicalisation focuses on extreme right (e.g., hate groups, fringe political parties, despotic leaders, specific eruptions episodes violence or terror, online rhetoric), daily processes, moments spatial configurations in-between mainstream are sometimes overlooked. These crucial to understand, order develop more nuanced effective language recognizing, responding to, combatting radicalisation. This paper thus addresses geographical blind spot by spatializing life far-right, through three-pronged taxonomy. Drawing from ethnographic observations social media socio-demographic analyses, argues three particular emerge as nodes formation (attached sites online/offline): a) spaces leisure (“Celebrations”); b) faith spirituality (“Exaltations”); c) corporeal (“Alpha Lands”). intersect, extend across urban, peri-urban rural terrains, do not necessarily adhere established territorial borders boundaries, but rather, can be envisioned multi-scalar fixes, laden with possibilities.
