Halla-aho ja Huhtasaari : populismin kahdet kasvot?
2021
Vuonna 2020 ilmestyi politiikan toimittajien kirjoittamana kaksi kirjaa perussuomalaisten näkyvimmistä toimijoista, puheenjohtaja Jussi Halla-ahosta ja europarlamentaarikko Laura Huhtasaaresta.

The radical right movement’s affective discourse is used to arouse strong emotions in the followers. We are interested in how repulsion toward women, typical of texts published in many online environments, affectively intersects with repulsion towards (other) gender…
Yksinäiset sudet, poliittinen väkivalta ja suomalainen äärioikeisto
2019
Terrori-isku Uudessa-Seelannissa herättää kysymyksiä äärioikeiston toimintamuodoista ja retoriikasta. Suomessa vastaavilta teoilta on toistaiseksi vältytty. Yksi syy tähän voi olla kentän järjestäytymistavoissa ja strategioissa. nonPeerReviewed
