Future Narratives Lab

To ensure this course can reach as many people as possible, we are now running two sessions on 6th Oct. This is the 17:30 BST session; you can find the other session here: 

Pivotal to the recent success of far-right political movements across the world has been their ability to portray themselves as avatars of popular ‘common sense’, contrasted with a decadent and oppressive cultural elite.

In this workshop we will explore how Narrative Analysis & Mapping can help unpack and explain the workings of this pivotal aspect of the appeal of the contemporary far-right, the historical roots and implications of its aesthetic nature, why many common opposing responses have backfired, and the basis of more effective approaches.

The session will be led by Future Narratives Lab Executive Director Daniel Stanley.

This is the first in a series of free online workshops:
