“…Nos últimos anos, é crescente a literatura sobre as chamadas "novas direitas", dadas as variáveis indicadoras que apontam, fundamentalmente, para as crises democráticas e a emergência de fenômenos políticos ligados ao retorno do fascismo ou mesmo de suas mutações histórico-políticas (Camus;Lebourg, 2017;Stanley, 2019;Mudde, 2021) Convém ressaltar que determinadas posições políticas de seu principal líder -André Ventura -contra minorias, a hostilidade a adversários, a movimentos antirracistas e gestos a saudações fascistas contradizem as declarações selecionadas a partir do próprio círculo de amizade pessoal ou partidária (Silva, 2020).…”

O artigo tem por objeto o projeto político do partido português Chega, criado em 2019. Versa, ainda, sobre a possível ocorrência de uma relação entre o legado do salazarismo (1933-1968), referente ao período em que António Salazar (1889-1970) comandou Portugal, com a atual plataforma desta agremiação partidária. O objetivo é analisar se existem consideráveis pontos de convergência com os ideais salazaristas que possam representar uma continuidade das políticas encampadas pelo ditador português e o atual projeto do partido, ou se o Chega é uma força de extrema-direita sem ligação com o ideário de Salazar. Qualitativo e exploratório, o artigo utilizar-se-á de fontes primárias produzidas pelo partido e de fontes secundárias, como artigos científicos, livros e matérias jornalísticas. A questão que norteia esta investigação é: que elementos permitem considerar o Chega como um herdeiro de ideias salazaristas e/ou distanciá-lo desta perspectiva dentro da realidade política portuguesa? Conclui-se, portanto, que o Chega não pode ser necessariamente identificado, ao menos no presente momento, como um herdeiro do salazarismo, embora o projeto de revisão constitucional e de reforma do Estado propostos pelo partido remetam diretamente às propostas de Salazar que levaram à criação do Estado Novo e à extensão do regime autoritário em Portugal até o ano de 1974.

“…Historical accounts emphasise the significance of the French Nouvelle Droite movement beginning in 1968, itself drawing on earlier radical anti-liberal ideas going back to the 19th and early 20th century. These ideas have been augmented by critiques of western liberalism that have gained traction from the impact of accelerating globalisation (Camus & Lebourg, 2015;Sedgwick, 2019). Drolet and Williams characterise this worldview as 'opposition to the liberal universalizing/national/managerial state', which is reinforced by globalisation, characterised as a transnational, American-led, elite liberal project.…”

This paper contributes to a growing literature on the international political world views and foreign policy agendas of European radical right parties with data from in‐depth interviews with current and former elected representatives of Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) and Rassemblement National (RN), focusing on their attitudes towards the United States and Russia. Despite very different party structures, the interviews point to a common pattern of intra‐party variation. Those who display deeper attachment to ‘elite’ and ‘people’ categories shaping interpretations of political events, revealed by attachment to conspiracy theories, showed inclination to more radical foreign policy agendas. This includes a stronger inclination to move away from traditional US‐led Western or NATO allies and security frameworks and a stronger preference for cooperation with Russia. For those less deeply committed to notions of malign elite conspiracy, anti‐American thinking was less prominent. For them, a sense of shared values and therefore cultural kinship with Western democracies retains relevance, and attitudes towards Russia are notably more cautious. This highlights the diversity of worldviews within the radical right, including with respect to the boundaries of transnational kinship.

“…On the other hand, the radical or far right uses antisemitism as a political tool supporting national protectionism and portrays Jews as outsiders and promoters of globalization (Rensmann and Schoeps, 2010). The contemporary far right emerged in the 1980s, finding support amongst those disaffected by the economy and immigration and finding inspiration in extreme nationalism (Camus and Lebourg, 2017). Support for the radical right and its nationalistic tendencies was intensified and reinforced across Europe with both the euro crisis of 2008 and the migrant crisis of 2015 (Algan et al, 2017; Vachudova, 2020).…”

Antisemitism was on the rise after 9/11, yet, until 2015, there was weak policy to address it at the national and EU levels. The following examines why and how antisemitism policy emerged on the EU agenda culminating in the creation of the 2021 comprehensive strategy to combat antisemitism. Utilizing punctuated equilibrium theory, crisification literature and literature on Commission entrepreneurship, the article explores why, although other violent attacks had occurred against Jews, it would take the double attacks in 2015 to bring attention to antisemitism within the Commission. Leadership at the EU level, NGOs working with EU institutions, a working definition of antisemitism, along with pre‐existent EU legal bases in antidiscrimination law, would help promote antisemitism policy to the EU level. The EU's adoption of antisemitism policy demonstrates both Commission agenda setting and prioritizing antisemitism due to its threat to EU fundamental ideals, thus promoting a ‘European polity’ based on values.
