The Rage of Replacement
2024
Overview
Tracing how the \"Great Replacement\" narrative has shaped
far-right extremism and propelled its dangerous political projects
and acts of violence The \"Great Replacement\" narrative,
which imagines that historic white majorities are being
intentionally replaced through immigration policies crafted by
global elites, has effectively mobilized racist, nationalist, and
nativist movements in the United States and Europe. The Rage of
Replacement tracks how this narrative has shaped the politics
and worldview of the far right, binding its various camps into a
community of rage obsessed with nostalgia for a white-supremacist
past.
Showing how the replacement narrative has found significant
purchase in recent mainstream discourse through the rise of
Trumpism, right-wing media figures like Tucker Carlson, and events
such as 2017's \"Unite the Right\" rally in Charlottesville,
Virginia, Michael Feola diagnoses the dangers this racist theory
poses as it shapes the far-right imagination, expands through civil
society, and deforms political culture. In particular, he tracks
how the replacement narrative has given rise to malignant political
strategies designed to \"take back\" the nation from its perceived
enemies-by force if deemed necessary.
Identifying the Great Replacement narrative as a central force
behind the rise and expansion of far-right extremism, Feola shows
how it has motivated a variety of dangerous political projects in
pursuit of illiberal, antidemocratic futures. From calls for the
creation of segregated white ethnostates to extremist violence such
as the mass shootings in Christchurch, El Paso, and Buffalo,
The Rage of Replacement makes clear that replacement
theory poses a dire threat to democracy and safety.
