Confronting the International Political Sociology of the New Right
Abstract
Abstract The rise of radical right-wing leaders, parties, movements, and ideas have transformed not only domestic political landscapes but also the direction and dynamics of international relations. Yet for all their emphasis on nationalist identity, on “America First” and “Taking Back Control,” there is an unmistakable international dimension to contemporary nationalist, populist movements. Yet these movements are also often transnationally linked. We argue that a constitutive part of this globality is the New Right's (NR) own distinctive international political sociology (IPS). Key thinkers of the contemporary NR have, over several decades, theorized and strategically mobilized globalized economic dislocation and cultural resentment, developing a coherent sociological critique of globalization. Drawing on the oft-neglected tradition of elite managerialism, NR ideologues have borrowed freely from Lenin and Schmitt on the power of enmity, as well as from Gramsci and the Frankfurt School on counterhegemonic strategies. Against the temptation to dismiss right-wing ideas as “merely” populist and by implication as lacking in ideological and theoretical foundations, we are faced with the much more challenging task of engaging a position that has already developed its own international political sociology and incorporated it into its political strategies.

“At the same time, the PanAfricanism of the AU is closer to the radical expressions of unity promoted by the early Pan-Africanists, underlining the fluid, evolving nature and multiple expressions of PanAfrican ideology ( Abrahamsen 2020 ).”

“As such, Pan-Africanism, like any ideology, 'is far from monolithic or unified, but contains internal tensions and fissures, multiple variations, and inflections, all adapting and mutating in interaction with global events' ( Abrahamsen 2020 , 57).”

“Pushing not only for more nationalistic, sovereigntist economic policies and tighter immigration controls, transnational rightwing movements around the world are also joining forces to ensure more conservative approaches to LGBTQ + rights, family policy, and abortion both within their own countries and within key multilateral institutions like the UN ( Abrahamsen et al. 2020 ; Bob 2012 ).”
From Introduction: The African Union, Pan-Africanism, and the Liberal World (Dis)Order (2023) · cites this paper as Abrahamsen et al. 2020
In the citing paper
“Calls for unity aside, Pan-Africanism also contains strong nativist strands ( Abrahamsen 2020 ), and African politics has struggled with issues of nativism and other forms of violent identity-based politics that are now understood as wider global challenges beyond the continent.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
