Constructing far-right nations: Reactionary politics, geo-imaginaries and digital media

Far-right nations examines how contemporary far-right actors construct and circulate digital geo-imaginaries that reconfigure understandings of nations, borders and global power. It analyses how ultranationalist and authoritarian movements use social media platforms, memes, influencers, alternative media and AI-generated content to frame some countries as idealised ethno-states and others as failed or threatening spaces. Drawing on case studies across Europe, the Americas, Africa and Asia, the volume maps how these imaginaries move transnationally, shaping alliances, antagonisms and geopolitical tensions. By tracing the cultural geopolitics embedded in these digital ecosystems, it offers a critical account of how far-right narratives transform political subjectivities, reinforce exclusionary ideologies and unsettle democratic norms. The book provides a conceptual framework for understanding digital nationalism, reactionary world-building and the global circulation of far-right ideas.
