- Very pleased to see this article finally out: Far-right fossil fuel ignorance: the nostalgia of national-industrial modernity (1/4) doi.org/10.1080/0964...
- In the article I argue that far-right climate obstruction can be understood as anti-reflexive acts of refusal to reclaim the ignorance of nation-industrial modernity. Revisiting early work on climate denialism and anti-reflexivity (by e.g., Riley Dunlap, Aaron McCright, and Peter Jacques) (2/4)
- I here argue that anti-reflexivity is broader than just opposition to environmentalism. Far-right nostalgia is often focused on the 50s and 60s and idolises a society closely resembling what Ulrich Bech described as first modernity. (3/4)
