Abstract

This work has investigated the question of populism as a discourse type. It focused on the thematic, ideology and rhetoric mobilized in the discourses of Marine Le Pen and Jean-Luc Mélenchon using critical discourse analysis and discourse theory. The main objective of this work was to see how these two politicians addressed their electorate, what subject they bring up, what is their expression of “the people vs the elite” and compare all these different elements from their campaign meeting speeches.  Nevertheless, their mobilization of populist rhetoric, despite being polar opposite of right and left representation, was identical. Overall, they tended to agree on a considerable number of subjects as detailed in the discourse analysis; both were Eurosceptics, in favor of leaving NATO and the European Energy Market for example but they have fundamental differences that set them apart as well. The substances of their discourse were presenting two polar ideas for the future of France. On the one hand, Marine Le Pen presents herself as the savior of the French nation and the ultimate defendant of the French culture, civilization, and language. On the other hand, Mélenchon who insists on the crucial need for harmony between humans themselves and with nature before it is too late to act on the climate crisis.

Abstract

In 2017 lijkt het erop dat Europese rechts-populisten in meerdere landen de verkiezingen zullen winnen. Geïnspireerd door brexit en de verkiezing van Trump komen zij voorafgaand aan de internationale verkiezingenreeks bij elkaar in Duitsland. Aanwezig zijn Marine Le Pen, Geert Wilders, Frauke Petry en Matteo Salvini. Zij representeren, volgens henzelf, de toekomst van Europa omdat ze het gevecht leiden tegen de EU en immigratie en strijden voor nieuw patriottisme.Het liep anders: Marine Le Pen verloor de presidentsverkiezingen van 2017, de PVV werd niet de grootste partij van Nederland en de AfD bleef buiten de Duitse regering. In de EU concludeerde men dat ‘de groei van het populisme’ voorbij is. Simen Ekern bezocht de belangrijkste Europese rechtse politici en laat zien dat het véél te vroeg is om die conclusie nu al te trekken.

Abstract

We live in strange times. Old borders are vanishing just before our astonished eyes, while new ones are rapidly emerging. Nearly three decades after the publication of Francis Fukuyama's The End of History and the Last Man, the zeitgeist that predicted a bright future for mankind to a large extent turned out to be rather more of a dystopia. Crises in and outside Europe multiplied the number of border controls, triggered the construction of walls and fences and widened ideological gaps. The book Discussing Borders, Escaping Traps is a transdisciplinary and transspatial approach to investigating these vanishing, emerging and changing material and immaterial borders. It is the result of a two-year project by AreaS, a research group in area studies located at Østfold University College in Norway, and by partners of AreaS.

Abstract

Numerous political commentators have noted the rise of the radical right worldwide. How has the radical right responded to the COVID-19 pandemic ? Has the radical right been legitimized in a world of closed borders and greater securitization ? Have radical right regimes in power cracked under the strains of the crisis and thus undermined their own political fortunes ? Have radical right-wing responses to COVID-19 been uniform or diversified ? These are some of the questions tackled in this book. The volume gathers a collection of short pieces, which highlight the multi-faceted ways in which right-wing and radical right-wing political forces have responded to the COVID-19 pandemic. It presents research by scholars from all around the world concentrating on the evolution of radical right-wing movements since the COVID-19 crisis began and their influence on mainstream and alternative narratives. The edited volume includes case studies as well as far-reaching reports on the radical right's utilizing of the crisis to re-shape ideas about sovereignty, globalization, democracy, equality, diversity, and political legitimacy. Such studies comprise cases on gender and class, racism, religious hatred, scapegoating, anti-Semitism and Sinophobia, conspiracy theories, and online radicalization, focusing on locations as diverse as the US, Canada, Brazil, Belgium, Germany, Switzerland, Sweden, Italy, France, Spain, Ukraine, Latvia, Israel, and India. All such studies are compiled in a total of six chapters and an epilogue, organized thematically and by country.

Abstract

In Europe today, staunchly nationalist parties such as France's National Front and the Austrian Freedom Party are identified as far-right movements, though supporters seldom embrace that label. More often, "far-right" is pejorative, used by liberals to tar these groups with the taint of fascism, Nazism, and other discredited ideologies. Jean-Yves Camus and Nicolas Lebourg's critical look at the far right throughout Europe--from the United Kingdom to France, Germany, Poland, Italy, and elsewhere--reveals a pre-history and politics more complex than the stereotypes suggest and warns of the challenges these movements pose to the EU's liberal-democratic order. The European far right represents a confluence of many ideologies: nationalism, socialism, anti-Semitism, authoritarianism. In the first half of the twentieth century, the radical far right achieved its apotheosis in the regimes of fascist Italy and Nazi Germany. But far-right movements have evolved significantly since 1945, as Far-Right Politics in Europe makes clear. The 1980s marked a turning point in political fortunes, as national-populist parties began winning seats in European parliaments. Since the terrorist attacks of 9/11, a new wave has unfurled, one that is explicitly anti-immigrant and Islamophobic in outlook. Though Europe's far-right parties differ in important respects, they are motivated by a common sense of mission: to save their homelands from the corrosive effects of multiculturalism and globalization by creating a closed-off, ethnically homogeneous society. Members of these movements are increasingly determined to gain power through legitimate electoral means. In democracies across Europe, they are succeeding.--

Abstract

What is fascism and what is populism? What are their connections in history and theory, and how should we address their significant differences? What does it mean when pundits call Donald Trump a fascist, or label as populist politicians who span left and right such as Hugo Chávez, Juan Perón, Rodrigo Duterte, and Marine Le Pen? Federico Finchelstein, one of the leading scholars of fascist and populist ideologies, synthesizes their history in order to answer these questions and offer a thoughtful perspective on how we might apply the concepts today. While they belong to the same history and are often conflated, fascism and populism actually represent distinct political trajectories. Drawing on an expansive record of transnational fascism and postwar populist movements, Finchelstein gives us insightful new ways to think about the state of democracy and political culture on a global scale. This new edition includes an updated preface that brings the book up to date, midway through the Trump presidency and the election of Jair Bolsonaro in Brazil.

Abstract

"The sharp polarisation of left and right is commonly dwelt on as the big political handicap of our times. Angry divisions on the right itself get less attention. Conservatism fills that gap. Across Europe and the US, a liberal right is at war with an illiberal right. As the leading force in politics, it is vital to understand the roots of the right's struggle with itself, how it stands and how it is likely to come out. From its early 19th-century origins to now, conservatism never finally settled on how far to compromise with liberalism, democracy and the capitalist world out of which both grew. By the late 19th century, the mainstream right had come to terms with all three. Its reward was lasting success in the next century and beyond. On the political fringes and among ethical-cultural critics, a recalcitrant right, unreconciled to liberal democracy, never died. Resistance to liberal democracy is seen today in the hard right, a strange but potent alliance of hyper-liberal globalists and anti-liberal localists. Conservatism focuses on an exemplary core of France, Britain, Germany and the United States. It describes the parties, politicians and thinkers of the right, bringing out strengths and weaknesses in conservative thought. An appendix includes definitions of leading terms, a brief account of conservatism's philosophical origins and mini-lives of more than 200 conservatives. Historical and topical, neither celebration nor caricature, Conservatism is a unique, panoramic survey of the Western world's dominant political tradition"--

Abstract

La montée du radicalisme, religieux et politique, a nettement marqué l'Europe ces derniers mois. Engagement djihadiste, vote d'extrême-droite... La séduction croissante qu'exercent "les extrêmes" sur une fraction de la jeunesse en colère, en proie à l'inquiétude ou désabusée, interroge. Cette jeunesse serait-elle sacrifiée ? Et le serait-elle, seule ? C'est la société tout entière qui est remise en cause dans ses fondements. Michel Fize, sociologue reconnu et spécialiste de la jeunesse, dresse un portrait scientifique extrêmement rigoureux des jeunes tentés par le radicalisme. Il fait ressortir leurs convergences, leurs divergences et les raisons de leur malaise. Ainsi, en creux, fait-il apparaître les urgences d'aujourd'hui et les besoins de l'Europe de demain.

Abstract

Challenger parties are on the rise in Europe, exemplified by the likes of Podemos in Spain, the National Rally in France, the Alternative for Germany, or the Brexit Party in Great Britain. Like disruptive entrepreneurs, these parties offer new policies and defy the dominance of established party brands. In the face of these challenges and a more volatile electorate, mainstream parties are losing their grip on power. This book explores why some challenger parties are so successful and what mainstream parties can do to confront these political entrepreneurs. Drawing analogies with how firms compete, the book demonstrates that political change is as much about the ability of challenger parties to innovate as it is about the inability of dominant parties to respond. Challenger parties employ two types of innovation to break established party dominance: they mobilize new issues, such as immigration, the environment, and Euroscepticism, and they employ antiestablishment rhetoric to undermine mainstream party appeal. Unencumbered by government experience, challenger parties adapt more quickly to shifting voter tastes and harness voter disenchantment. Delving into strategies of dominance versus innovation, the authors explain why European party systems have remained stable for decades, but also why they are now increasingly under strain. As challenger parties continue to seek to disrupt the existing order, Political Entrepreneurs shows that their ascendency fundamentally alters government stability and democratic politics.
