Far Right in Australia: Intellectuals, Masculinity and Citizenship

这个项目将通过观察男性主导的澳大利亚极右翼团体的智力基础来调查他们。社会学的焦点是核心思想如何影响阳刚之气的比喻和弱势公民的现象。这超越了对愤怒、被剥夺公民权的年轻人的简单刻板印象；抓住激进的右翼思想，激励他们，并告知他们的仇恨言论和行动。使用多种方法，我们将探索态度，并利用跨国极右思想来“想象”澳大利亚。该项目将产生新的知识，让人们了解公民身份的纽带是如何在边缘人群中被削弱的；对男子气概如何被积极利用作为招聘机制的见解。

This project will investigate male-dominated far right groups in Australia by looking at their intellectual underpinnings. The sociological focus is on how core ideas inflect tropes of masculinity and the phenomena of weak citizenship. This moves beyond a simple stereotype of angry, disenfranchised young men; to grasp the radical right-wing thinking that motivates them, and informs their hate rhetoric and actions. Using multi-methods, we will explore attitudes, and use of transnational far right ideas to 'imagine' Australia. The project will generate new knowledge of how bonds of citizenship have weakened amongst men who define themselves at the margins; yielding insights into how masculinity is actively utilised as a recruitment mechanism.
