This project speaks directly to the "Civil Society, Development, andDemocracy" pathway. One of the major challenges confronting liberaldemocratic societies today is the rise of populist and far-right movements,which have been using increasingly subtle messaging to advanceanti-democratic and xenophobic values. This project contributes tounderstanding this pressing challenge by examining how seeminglyunproblematic concerns surrounding climate change and environmentalcarrying capacity can be mobilized to advance anti-migration policies andsentiments. The rise of eco-fascist movements therefore raises pressingintellectual questions about the intersections of global environmental crisisand democratic backsliding in the West, which have, as yet, gone largelyunanswered. Equally, this project can yield novel insights into shiftingdiscourses of anti-migrant groups, but also the ideational confines withinwhich they now operate.

该项目直接涉及“公民社会、发展和民主”途径。当今自由民主社会面临的主要挑战之一是民粹主义和极右翼运动的兴起，这些运动一直在使用越来越微妙的信息来推进反民主和仇外价值观。该项目通过研究如何动员围绕气候变化和环境承载能力的无问题关切来推动反移民政策和情绪，从而有助于理解这一紧迫的挑战。因此，生态法西斯运动的兴起提出了有关全球环境危机和西方民主倒退的交叉点的紧迫知识问题，而这些问题迄今为止在很大程度上尚未得到解答。同样，这个项目可以产生新的见解，以不断变化的话语反移民群体，但也inwhich他们现在运作的概念范围。
