Summary

Dr Samuel Tanner offers a reflective monologue tracing his intellectual journey from doctoral research on war crimes in the Balkans to contemporary work on right-wing extremism, disinformation, and what he calls pop masculinism. Across these projects runs a persistent question: how do people make sense of a world that feels as though it is slipping out of alignment? Drawing on fieldwork, policing research, and analysis of digital platforms, Dr Tanner explores the relationship between violence, information, and social order in an era where public discourse increasingly unfolds within privately governed online spaces.
