| Title | Transnational Networks of Right-Wing Populist Parties in the European Union |
| Summary | This thesis challenges the proclaimed unity of right-wing populist political cooperation on the transnational level in the European Union. Although the thesis identifies four major shared Others against which these political parties successfully mobilize—globalization, the European Union, liberalism and Islam—, the analysis shows that the differences in the regional socio-economic, political and historical backgrounds along the Iron Curtain strongly prevail over the unity within this transnational political movement. The two cases of regional transnational cooperation selected for this comparative case study are the right-wing populist parties cooperating within the structure of the Visegrad Group representing the East, and the parties that met to show transnational unity in Koblenz, Germany in January 2017 representing the West. |
