The Far-Right Challenge in European Politics

European Union
Populism
Security
European Parliament
P512

Abstract

This panel examines the rising influence of far-right parties across European institutions and their impact on EU politics and policymaking. Papers explore public attitudes toward the cordons sanitaire in the European Parliament following the 2024 elections, assess whether far-right parties act as agents of disruption or continuity in security and defense policy, and analyze how increased politicization affects intra-party dynamics. The panel also investigates the epistemic dimensions of the global right's counter-hegemonic strategies and examines how challenger parties contest Ukraine's EU accession across different national contexts
