Over years, the public trust towards mainstream media has been eroding, limiting their ability to fulfill democratic functions within the American society. Meanwhile, the Internet has led to proliferation of alternative media outlets on digital space. These platforms allow new outreach and mobilizing opportunities to the once peripheral alternative media. So far, the literature about alternative media have been heavily focused on left-wing alternative media outlets, while the research on alternative right-wing media has remained scarce and fragmented. Only few studies have applied a comparative analysis approach to study these outlets. Moreover, research that examines different aspects of alternative media such as content and audience reception is more rare. This study aims to demonstrate the heterogeneity of alternative media by highlighting their history and functions within the American democracy.

  • The Heartland of the PVV
    The heartland of the PVV An overall examination of the electoral success of the PVV in the province of Limburg M. C. N. P. Dinjens Master’s thesis Comparative Politics Radboud University Nijmegen August 7, 2012 Supervisor: dr. A. Zaslove Foreword and acknowledgements I had no trouble deciding what to write my Master’s thesis about. Ever since the electoral success of the radical right populist party the PVV in the province of Limburg – the region where I grew up and lived for several years - people have been asking me about explanations for this phenomenon. Although speculations are numerous, I never managed to present a clear-cut answer. Since the elections of 2010 Limburg is seen as a bulwark of radical right voters1. Apparently, the electoral success of a radical right populist party is fascinating to a lot of people, not only to political scientists. Because of the numerous speculations and prejudices about the reasons for this electoral success, I decided to scientifically analyze the phenomenon. By doing this, I wanted to gain more knowledge on the situation of the PVV in Limburg, but also increase understanding of the factors that motivate people to vote for a radical right populist party in general. Although this thesis will not give a definitive and indisputable answer to my main question, it has made an important contribution to the knowledge about intra-country variation in radical right party success. Next to this scientific relevance it has strengthened my opinion that we have to take these parties and their voters seriously. I would also like to use this foreword to thank all people who have helped me during the thinking and writing process of my thesis.

  • The Kids Are Alt-Right: the Intellectual Origins of the Alt-Right
    The Kids are Alt-Right: The Intellectual Origins of the Alt-Right ANDREW WILLIAM JONES A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN POLITICAL SCIENCE YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO AUGUST 2019 ©Andrew William Jones, 2019 Abstract The electoral success and increased media presence of the Far-Right ideology known as the Alternative Right has catapulted the once marginal fringe movement into popular political discourse. The term Alternative Right is used in contrast to Alt-Right, which is a specific subsection of the broader Alt-Right who are associated with Richard Spencer. This dissertation examines the theories that make up the Alternative Right by addressing the question: “How have the divergent political theory traditions of the Alternative Right coalesced into a new reactionary political ideology?”The first half of the dissertation defines the Alternative Right and the historical context for the movement. The dissertation defines the Alternative Right by its axioms of the right to difference, the primacy of cultural metapolitics and hierarchical individualism. The second half examines the four major intellectual influences of the Alternative Right: The Techno-libertarians know as the Grey Tribe, NeoReactionary Thought, the European New Right and the American White Nationalists. The dissertation concludes that the divergent political theory of the Alternative Right is unified based on its shared reactionary values, its break from American liberal- conservativism and a consistent focus on the literature of radicalization and critique. The goal of the Alternative Right is a rebirth of racial/gendered consciousness and a new American/European renaissance.

    THE TWO FACES OF INTERNATIONAL ASSISTANCE Tsveta Petrova PhD Student 214 White Hall Department of Government Cornell University Ithaca, NY 14853 Tel: (607) 272-4559 Fax: (607) 255-5240 Email: [email protected] DRAFT: PLEASE DO NOT DISTRIBUTE OR CITE 1 THE TWO FACES OF INTERNATIONAL ASSISTANCE [PAPER ABSTRACT] The paper examines how international cooperation practices influence the policy-making processes in Central and Eastern Europe; the focus is on the consequences for the democratization projects of these states in general and in particular – for their elites’ autonomy. The analysis is based on a qualitative comparative study of the impact a security and an economic/governmental international organization, NATO and the EU, have had on two Central and East European countries – Poland and Romania – which were diametrically opposite with respect to their elites’ autonomy before the cooperation process began. The study traces the chronological development of the EU’s and NATO’s involvement in Central and Eastern Europe, focusing on the content of cooperation and how it impacts elite accountability and control. Furthermore, since international regimes could influence the way domestic forces exercise control over their elites, the paper also examines whether the institutionalization of the cooperation processes limits or encourages the elites’ autonomy by redistributing elites’ and domestic groups’ access to procedural and cognitive political resources. The procedural instruments examined include policy-making initiative and institutions,
