Description

Considering that far-right ideologies and values, such as self-interest, lack of solidarity, greed, xenophobia, and racism, are shared across EU borders and are increasingly perceived as a transnational threat, this panel, convened by members of the ISS21 Populism and the Rise of the Far-Right Cluster, delves into the intricate factors driving this phenomenon. The panel explores how far right and populist movements are effectively active in broadening their appeal and examine the potential long-term consequences for democracy and social cohesion.
