Richard Hanania (born August 28, 1985[2]) is an American political science researcher and right-wing political commentator.[3] Hanania is the founder and president of the think tank Center for the Study of Partisanship and Ideology (CSPI).[4][5][6]

Between 2008 and the early 2010s Hanania wrote for alt-right and white supremacist publications under the pseudonym Richard Hoste.[6][7] He acknowledged and disavowed his writing under the pseudonym when it was reported in 2023.[6][5] A number of journalists note that Hanania continues to make racist statements under his own name.[4][8][5][7]
