Abstract
ABSTRACT This paper provides an introduction to the special issue: ‘The Far-Right in World Politics’. In setting out the special issue, the paper does four things. First, we provide a definition of what we mean by the ‘far-right’ and identify its core characteristics over the longue durée and across different spatial locales. Secondly, we provide a brief discussion and critique of existing approaches to the study of the far-right and offer an alternative methodological framing centred on ‘the international’. Thirdly, we discuss the ambivalent connections between the far-right and liberal international orders – both today and in the past. Finally, we provide brief summaries of each contribution to the special issue.
