Author Description

Across The West, There Has Been A Resurgence Of Ethnic Nationalism, Populism, & Anti-immigrant Sentiment - A Phenomenon That Many Commentators Have Called The 'new Nationalism.' This Book Seeks To Understand Why The Bastions Of Liberalism Are Proving To Be Fertile Ground For A Decidedly Illiberal Ideology. To Do So, It Examines Three Of The Most Successful Exemplars Of The New Nationalism: Donald Trump In The Us, Marine Le Pen In France, & Brexit In The Uk. To Understand The Success Of These New Nationalists, It Looks At The Role Of White Majorities, Their Cultures, & Their Histories. Through A Careful Analysis Of The Social Media Campaigns Of Trump, Le Pen, & The Brexit Campaigners, The Book Shows How Today's New Nationalists Are Cultivating Support From White Majorities By Drawing From Long-standing Myths & Symbols To Construct An Image Of The Nation As An Ethnic Community.
