{"product_id":"weaponised-pluralism","title":"Weaponised pluralism","description":"\u003ci\u003eWeaponised pluralism \u003c\/i\u003etakes a fine-grained lens to understand why far-right organisations recruit from the very minorities they oppose. Why do these organisations seek to appear like pluralists? Building on his time with the Muslim wing of the Hindu far-right in India, Felix Pal proposes that bigots can strategically use what he calls \u003ci\u003eweaponised pluralism\u003c\/i\u003e. This political strategy counterintuitively uses progressive political performances to bolster bigoted political agendas. Basing his analysis in an Indian context, \u003ci\u003eWeaponised pluralism\u003c\/i\u003e nonetheless reveals much about contexts as varied as Palestinian soldiers in the Israeli army, Indigenous Australians on far-right television, and Black congressional candidates in the American Republican Party. Drawing on rare access to the Hindu far-right and its Muslim wing, Pal paints an evocative picture of the complexities of how far-right organising extends far beyond the pointy end of traditional bigotry.","brand":"Manchester University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Product","offer_id":57338808205656,"sku":"9781526189110","price":97.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781526189110.jpg?v=1779313532","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/weaponised-pluralism","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
