Often neglected in the study of far right organisations,
post-communist Europe recently witnessed the rise and fall of a
number of populist radical right parties. The Populist Radical
Right in Central and Eastern Europe is the first comparative study
to focus on the ideology, impact, and electoral performance of this
party family in the region. The book advances a series of arguments
concerning the context and text of these parties, and
systematically analyses the supply-side and demand-side of populist
radical right politics. Whilst populist radical right parties in
Central and Eastern Europe maintain broad similarities with their
West European counterparts, they come across as a distinct
phenomenon worthy of study in their own right. Parties like Ataka
(Bulgaria), Jobbik (Hungary), and the SNS (Slovakia) resort to
historical legacies and contextual idiosyncrasies to frame their
ideology; interact with other parties over a number of policy
areas; and ultimately compete for public office on the basis of
their nativist agenda. The book provides a novel framework for the
analysis of different aspects of populist radical right politics,
notably enhancing the understanding of this phenomenon by means of
primary data such as personal interviews with party leaders and
original expert surveys. Using the ideological features of these
parties as an overarching analytical tool, this book is essential
reading for students and scholars researching the far right,
post-communist issues and European politics in general.
