This research analysis is an investigative effort at applying a methodological theory of Islamic extremism to Britain's far-right. Using four assigned categories-the defined 'puzzle pieces' of Hafez and Mullins theory-the research presented will draw heavily from recent history and contemporary societal examples to demonstrate how far-right radicalisation takes place. By looking at grievances, ideology, networks and enabling environment the aim of such an exercise is to demonstrate the intricate processes involved in radicalising someone to support far-right parties and ideologies. One of the most important themes of this analysis is the increasing politicisation of 'culture' by both the government and the far-right. Consequently, there will be discussion on Britain's Prevent programme and the far-right's adaptability in using culture to promote a 'new racism' that presents itself as different from traditional, fascist styles of Othering.

Russia’s connection to far-right movements is an emerging research area. By looking at the case of Georgia, a strategic narrative approach is employed to further understand this connection in a complex environment of anti-Russian sentiments. By developing an analytical framework looking into strategic narrative alignment, a focus is shifted to communication and storytelling. Russian News Agency TASS and two Georgian movements, Alliance of Patriots and Conservative Movement, are analysed through a narrative analysis and evaluated in how, and to what extent their narratives align. The results unveil echoing stories of a Western villain and future solutions of a Georgia tending to its true national interests. The Russian narrative aligns to a larger extent with the radical right party rather than the extreme right party. Aligning narration in antagonistic purposes can thereby implicate Georgia’s foreign policy direction of Euro-Atlantic integration by facilitation of Russian interests through domestic, far-right movements.
