‘In the growing literature on the far right and the environment, too few works centre the visual politics that are so integral to extremist appeals. Forchtner and his collaborators work to address this lacuna. Novel in its focus, global in its scope, and rigorous in its analysis, Visualising far-right environments makes a necessary and compelling contribution to our understanding of the far right today.’ John Hultgren, Bennington College‘A welcome, timely, and original contribution. This set of diverse global case studies richly analyzes the evergreen appeal of environmental and ecological claims—and their visual representations—to burgeoning far right movements around the world. An essential read.’ Cynthia Miller-Idriss, Founding Director of the Polarization and Extremism Research & Innovation Lab (PERIL) at the American University in Washington, DC'Visualising Far-Right Environments makes a significant contribution to the field by highlighting the crucial role of ‘the visual’ in far-right environmental communication. This focus on the visual aspect, but also the attention to party and nonparty actors and the global perspective makes this book an essential read for scholars, students, and practitioners interested in understanding far-right politics. By demonstrating the complex interplay between ideology, context, and strategy in far-right environmental communication, this book is essential for understanding and addressing the challenges posed by the far right’s engagement with environmental questions in contemporary politics.'Gijs Lambrechts, Journal of Language and Politics
