Based on the religious economy approach, it defines the conditions favoring diversified operation on both the legal market and the black market. Despite repression, the Church strived to maintain official operation in Czechoslovakia. Simultaneously, it developed an underground structure that allowed for uncompromised religious life. The case study confirms the theoretical predictions that severe repression favors underground operation without eliminating the need for the official presence of the Church. Beyond the religious economy approach, the paper points to the role of agency. The diversification strategy could only emerge and function due to the combination of externally imposed circumstances and individual initiative.","PeriodicalId":44955,"journal":{"name":"Politics Religion & Ideology","volume":"29 39","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134953499","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Far-right reflexology: a periphery-to-centre approach for the study of the far-right","authors":"Felix Pal","doi":"10.1080/21567689.2023.2279158","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/21567689.2023.2279158","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACTTo address the problem of participant access, central in the study of the far-right, scholars of far-right mobilisations navigate between a methodological rock and a hard place. Either scholars produce in-depth qualitative accounts, putting their safety and ethical commitments at risk, or scholars study far-right mobilisations from a distance and produce limited externalist accounts that centre large surveys, quantitative studies and electoral analysis at the expense of granular detail. Inspired by the medical logics of reflexology, I propose one solution to this impasse that understands the impenetrable centres of far-right networks through their peripheries. I argue that far-right network peripheries—often more accessible to scholars—share personnel, information and resources with network centres, revealing much about these often secretive central organizational nodes. I advocate for deep qualitative work on the far-right (thus avoiding externalist pitfalls) but in the peripheries of far-right networks (thus avoiding safety and ethical risks). Refocusing on far-right peripheries opens a number of analytical doors that decentre the study of electoral politics and refocus on far-right embeddedness in civil society networks. Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 There is substantial debate over the term far-right, but Mudde’s definition remains standard across much of the literature on far-right movements. See Cas Mudde, Populist Radical Right Parties in Europe (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2007). I do, however, discard his use of populism as a key marker of far-rightness because it fails to capture mobilisations outside of Europe or North America like the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, Nippon Kaigi and Front Pembela Islam, who appear clearly far-right in the content of their thought, but are ambivalent in their populism.2 Nonna Mayer, ‘Political Science Approaches to the Far Right’, in Stephen Ashe, Joel Busher, Graham Macklin and Aaron Winter (eds) Researching the Far Right: Theory, Method and Practices (London: Routledge, 2021), pp. 17–31.3 Elisabeth Carter, ‘Right-Wing Extremism/Radicalism: Reconstructing the Concept’, Journal of Political Ideologies, 23:2 (2018), pp. 157–182.4 Kathleen Blee, ‘Ethnographies of the Far-Right’, Journal of Contemporary Ethnography, 36:2 (2007), pp. 119–128; Pietro Castelli Gattinara, ‘The Study of the Far Right and its Three E’s: Why Scholarship Must Go Beyond Eurocentrism, Electoralism and Externalism’, French Politics, 18 (2020), pp. 314–333.5 Mayer, op. cit.6 Joel Busher, ‘Negotiating Ethical Dilemmas During an Ethnographic Study of Anti-Minority Activity’, in Stephen Ashe, Joel Busher, Graham Macklin and Aaron Winter (eds) Researching the Far Right: Theory, Method and Practices (London: Routledge, 2021), pp. 270–283.7 Werner Ulrich, ‘Beyond Methodology Choice: Critical Systems Thinking as Critically Systemic Discourse’, Journal of the Operat","PeriodicalId":44955,"journal":{"name":"Politics Religion & Ideology","volume":"66 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135684837","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Juxtaposing violent extremism and critical radicalism in Europe: the role of reflexive awareness in pursuit of religious purity and cultural essence","authors":"Metin Koca","doi":"10.1080/21567689.2023.2277466","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/21567689.2023.2277466","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACT Employing an approach that focuses on three goals of ideology-making (i.e. resolving grievances, seeking status, socialization), this study explores the reflexive boundaries between (1) 68 individual representations of violent ‘Jihadi’ and ‘right-wing’ extremism in Europe, and (2) 130 young adult European citizens who pursue religious purity or cultural essence. Having identified the latter as a pool of ‘critical radicalism’ in the current political context, the study juxtaposes violent and non-violent radicalizations by challenging two interrelated assumptions. The first is the sameness assumption: those who use a similar repertoire are unified by their similarity. The second is the continuum assumption: radicalism will eventually lead to violence, given that ‘radicalization’ discursively implies a shift towards promoting or carrying out violent behaviour. Drawing on comparisons between interview and media narratives, I argue that violent extremism and critical radicalism part ways while developing reflective methods to evaluate grievances, reclaim agency in response to status losses, and align social bonds with the ideology. The conceptual divergence indicates several fault lines between ideological simplicity and completeness and relates to individuals’ self-awareness in (re)making the ideology rather than a given ideology. This concluding remark has implications for the value of reflexive awareness in democracies.","PeriodicalId":44955,"journal":{"name":"Politics Religion & Ideology","volume":"25 9","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135820234","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
