Descripción / Abstract
New Right metapolitics is a challenge for discourse research as its proponents possess reflexive knowledge of the discursive arenas in which they engage. To critically analyse these discursive practices requires conceptual approaches that differ from the emic concepts of the New Right. So far, there are scant methodological reflections on the peculiarity of metapolitics. This paper offers an analytical framework to tackle these shortcomings. I argue to distinguish between narrations and narratives, and to conceptualise the New Right as a narrative community. Furthermore, I propose several analytical categories to be implemented in a sociology of knowledge approach to discourse.
