Drawing on a mixed research methodology with a strong qualitative
character, this book traces the political impact of the British
National Party in the UK, the Front National in France and the Lega
Nord in Italy by exploring their contagion effects on immigration
politics and policy in particular over the patterns of inter-party
competition, public behaviour and policy developments. This book
suggests that extreme right party impact on immigration politics
and policy is an outcome of the extreme right parties' electoral
threats to established parties alongside the agency of mainstream
political elites. It also highlights the decline in the intensity
of extreme right parties' contagion effects on public attitudes to
immigration throughout the late 2000s or the potential
overstatement of this political process in the past. Featuring
detailed case studies of the UK, France and Italy as three mature
multi-party democracies where the extreme right was on the rise
during the past decade, this work will be of great interest to
students and scholars of populism, extremism, European politics and
comparative and party politics.
