open access: yesAmerican Ethnologist, EarlyView.

Antinomies of Nativism: Understanding Decoloniality Theory's Affinities with the Global Far Right

open access: yesDevelopment and Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines the peculiar conjuncture of decolonial theory and contemporary far‐right ideology. It argues that their shared fixation on the dualism of native and settler is immanent to the development of advanced capitalism, particularly the sharpening of its contradictory tendency to undermine labour as the source of value, and to ...
