Populists in Europe (7/8): The new face of Austrian FPÖ
▻http://fr.myeurop.info/node/13867
The Freedom Party of #Austria or FPÖ aspires to come first nationally in the European elections. For the past 30 years it has been trying to normalize its image by attempting to break from its ideological heritage close to Nazism.
Stop telling the FPÖ it is a #neo-Nazi party. Since the 1990s, they have been working to move away from this ideology to turn into a large right-wing populist party. lire la suite

▻http://fr.myeurop.info/node/13856
The #Dutch Party for Freedom or #PVV is changing the face of the far-right in Europe. Anti-Islam but against homophobia, #geert_wilders’ party is leading the way for a softer form of #nationalism.

Populists in Europe (4/8) : #Hungary facing nationalism
▻http://fr.myeurop.info/node/13849
Hungary is caught between the devil and the deep blue sea. The country has to cope with the rise of #Jobbik – the self-proclaimed “most popular radical party” in Europe. The ruling #Fidesz party, on the other hand, does not hesitate to use their political opponent’s most extreme ideas.
In Hungarian, #Jobbik means both “better” and “further right” – an apt name when we look at the current political context in the country. lire la suite
