3CT fellow William Mazzarella was recently interviewed in The Caravan by Abhimanyu Chandra, a doctoral student at the University of Chicago. Part of a series of conversations considering when, why, and how some people leave right-wing settings, the two discussed how people’s attachments to figures like the Indian prime minister Narendra Modi and Trump can be understood as ways of organizing anxiety.
