I am also in the process of writing my dissertation, tentatively entitled Standing Proud? On White Ethnonationalist Claimmaking in Contemporary Democracies. Engaging work in contentious politics, political sociology, and history, it will advance a novel argument about how white ethnonationalists create and engage with the political cultures of their movement and how states, in turn, respond to white nationalists. It will attempt to provide an answer to the question central to my research agenda about why white nationalism continues to exist, suggesting that white nationalism's continued existence is a function of the nature of white nationalist social networks and the roles groups take on within the wider white nationalist ecosystem. It will study organizations and white nationalist groups in the United States, Canada, and South Africa and involve extensive quantitative (principally network analysis and causal inference) components and (hopefully) original archival work.Â
