Zusammenfassung:"This edited volume examines populist radical right parties in the Nordic region. Somewhat surprisingly given the image of a consensual, egalitarian and progressive region of Europe, the Nordic countries have been fertile ground for the radical right. Not only have radical right parties persisted for many decades, but they are currently much stronger in this region than in most other European countries today. In this book, the contributors analyse the electoral, ideological and organizational aspects of the radical right in the Nordic region: The Progress Party in Norway (Fremskrittspartiet Frp), the Sweden Democrats (Sverigedemokraterna SD), Danish People's Party (Dansk Folkeparti DF), and the Finns party (Perussuomalaiset PS). It also explores how mainstream parties and the media have reacted to the rise of the radical right, whether the radical right is integrated into mainstream politics, the extent to which they challenge the dominant ideological paradigm of Nordic politics and whether they mobilize and organize differently to other parties. Understanding the Nordic radical right is crucial to comprehending the transformation of Nordic politics, but also changes in European politics more generally. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of Scandinavian politics, populism, the radical right and comparative party politics"--
