Max Horder is an anthropologist interested in the relationship between social polarization, authoritarianism, technological change, and the rise in populism across Europe. Max obtained his PhD in Anthropology at Princeton University, where his doctoral research became his first book: What Brexit Means: An Anthropology of Polarisation and Cultural Change (Routledge 2024). His current research explores the dynamics of dehumanization during political conflict, with a focus on the interplay between rationalisation, status, and out-group humanisation.
