'This beautifully conceived and written book demonstrates how the rise of right-wing populism is grounded in the cultural politics of affect. It also highlights how this basic realization demands new ways of imagining the possibilities of democratic education.' Fazal Rizvi, Professor Emeriti, Universities of Melbourne, Australia, and Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA 'This timely book explores the challenges educators face with the rise of the far right, shedding light on the affective dimensions of ideological attachments with impressive cross-disciplinary breadth. Foregrounding the role emotions play in cognition, the author's synthesis moves beyond critique to enumerate affirmative pedagogical directions.' Megan Boler, Professor of Social Justice Education, University of Toronto, Canada 'The author continues his challenging work on emotion and affect by asking how right-wing populism gains affective power. After mapping his critique, he takes up the question of the renewal of anti-fascist, democratic education. He offers the invention of affective pedagogies that are simultaneously practical, theoretical, and political.' Marie Brennan, Extraordinary Professor of Education, Stellenbosch University, South Africa, and Adjunct Professor of Education, University of South Australia
