Is the radical right making noise or changes? -- Why is so little known about impacts of peripheral parties? -- A theory of peripheral party impact -- The impact of radical right parties across Western Europe -- The entrepreneurial national front in France -- German parties have opportunity without actualization -- The FPÖ finds a winning combination in leadership and the third lager -- Peripheral parties are making changes.
Summary: "This book contends that far-right parties play pivotal roles in setting the tone of political debates, shaping the political party system, and structuring government policy. Increasingly, as national governments attempt to cope with new realities of greater global migration, strained welfare states, and threats of foreign terror, opportunities have opened for parties of the far right to position themselves strategically."--Publisher description.
