Su MicroMega iniziamo la pubblicazione di un glossario dell'estremismo di destra che ho il piacere di coordinare.

#ARENASproject investigates how extremist narratives shape political and social life in Europe, especially in relation to #science, #gender, and #nation.

By analysing how these discourses emerge and spread, the project helps equip society with the tools to recognise and resist them.
