Samuel Bennett
Samuel Bennett has a B.A. in International Relations, University of Sussex, 2003, an M.A in Peace and Development Studies, Universitat Jaume I, Spain 2005 and a PhD in Linguistics, Poznań, 2015. His research interests are in Critical Discourse Studies, Populism and Far-right discourses, and in Immigration and Integration. Besides that, he has published extensively with respect to the topics of Social media and social movements as well as European identity and values.
Since the early 2000s the normalisation and mainstreaming of far-right politics has become one of the main strands of research in political science, media and communications studies and critical discourse analysis. In slightly different ways scholars using and developing these concepts try to address “the huge complexity of the historical and contemporary global/regional/local conditioning of the far right’s growing acceptance in European and global societies and political spheres of the early 21st century” (Krzyzanowski and Ekstrom 2022, 720). In this lecture, Samuel Bennett tentatively reassess and problematises this reading of the current state of affairs.
