Abstract

Right-wing parties and groups are increasingly supported across Europe. Such parties have proven successful in national elections recently held, often taking second or third place, and in some cases joining the ruling coalitions. Their shared focus on sovereignty, their skepticism towards the EU, their emphasis on rigorous immigration policies and putting "local" residents first in areas such as social welfare and social services, policies that promote new nationalism, have made it possible to analyze all these parties. Civic nationalist rhetoric presents culture as a value issue, justifying the exclusion of others by the alleged threats posed by those who do not share our liberal democratic values. This strengthens the ability of these parties to mobilize on an issue such as terrorism by linking Islamophobic narratives to immigration and security with the justification that some cultures and religions are intolerant and inherently negatively oriented toward democracy. It also focuses on social welfare as an important aspect of social contract between the state and citizens. The views of these parties are increasingly protectionist and chauvinistic, enabling them to mobilize economically precarious sections of the population, stating that this is the result of immigration, unemployment and (alleged) scarcity brought on by the others. The narratives of right-wing populism have significant implications on the future of democracy and policy-making in Europe. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
