Evolution of ideology and practice of modern right-wing radical parties in Western Europe: from racial-national ideas of fascism to anti-immigration discourse
This article analyzes racial and national ideas in the ideology of extreme right-wing parties. The authors conclude that such ideas include: extreme nationalism, chauvinism, xenophobia, racism, and the myth of the nation's rebirth from "cultural decline". The authors trace the evolution of these ideas and their current state within the ideology of far-right parties, which is associated with the rejection of violence. The presence of racial and national ideas in the ideology of the modern extreme right allows us to draw a conclusion about their taxonomy. The aim of this work is the resolution of the question of right-wing parties belonging to neo-fascist organizations, indicated through analysis of the following organizations; the party "Forza Nouva" in Italy; "National Association" in France; "Austrian freedom party" in Austria; "British national party" and "Vlaams Belang" in Belgium.
