by Gregory C. Baldi (Editor)
The resurgence of nationalism is one of the most significant developments in European politics over the past 25 years. Few countries have avoided it, with most experiencing a surge in support for parties that espouse anti-immigrant, anti-European Union and anti-globalization views. Led by populist-style leaders, their rhetoric has pervaded political discourse influencing mainstream parties and even, in some countries, gaining power and forming governments.
This book brings together experts to analyse nine countries that contribute specific aspects to the study of nationalism in Europe. While the parties and movements considered in the chapters demonstrate significant variation, what binds them is a view that the nation, however defined, must be reasserted and that core policy issues and challenges should all be seen primarily through the lens of national sovereignty and solidarity. Together the essays offer fresh insights into nationalism's resurgence and the nature of populist politics.Author Biography
