3rd Summer School of the Standing Group on Extremism and Democracy: Concepts and Methods for Research on Far-Right Politics

4 – 8 July 2022, Sciences Po, Paris

Attended? We hope you had a memorable few days of thought-provoking lectures and fruitful networking!

Organised by our Standing Group on Extremism and Democracy, the Summer School was convened by Pietro Castelli Gattinara (Université Libre de Bruxelles) and Andrea Pirro (Scuola Normale Superiore) and in collaboration with the Center for Research on Extremism (C-REX).

The event focused on the study of the far-right in its radical, populist, and extremist manifestations, boosting your knowledge of the theoretical, empirical, and methodological underpinnings of contemporary far-right politics.

Participants were introduced to the concepts and theories explaining the conditions affecting far-right mobilisation and performance, and methods to tackle this phenomenon empirically.
