Focusing on the rising support for the populist right in Eastern
Europe, this book examines how anger and resentment towards
minorities is being utilized in politics. Bustikova details the
process by which the acquisition of political power and demand for
rights by ascendant minority groups precipitates a backlash of
mobilization from the radical right. However, this book also argues
that prejudice against minorities is not a sentiment exclusive to
right-wing voters and is not the root cause of increasing support
for the radical right. Rather, this study reveals variation in how
minorities are accommodated by the government and explains the
electoral successes and failures of radical right parties. By
examining the capitalization on these feelings of discontent
towards politically assertive minorities and with the governmental
policies that yield to their demands, Bustikova exposes volatile,
zeitgeist-dependent conditions under which once fringe right-wing
parties have risen to prominent but precarious positions of power.
