Warm thanks to my co-editors, all the chapter authors and the Routledge team for bringing this volume to life together. It’s a great joy to finally see it come through!

Over 30 authors explore ideology through:
▫️ Qual & quant methods
▫️ New historiographical takes
▫️ Debates on defining ideologies
▫️ Ideological vectors : institutions, networks, social groups
▫️ Non-verbal, visual & latent forms of ideology
▫️ Tech & ideology
▫️ Global trajectories of ideological change

The Handbook moves ideology studies beyond the canon of foundational texts, by paying closer attention to the diverse forms and levels of ideological activity and their interplay with institutions, social organizations and cultural practices.

Thank you very much, Brian!
