“Cas Mudde offers an expert guidance to the current debates about the populist radical right. With its clear framework
and comprehensive selection of key readings this book is essential reading for students and those new to the field.”
Tjitske Akkerman, University of Amsterdam, the Netherlands
“Cas Mudde has assembled the most important work on the populist radical right. Research that has collectively defined
the research agenda. The manner in which Mudde presents them encapsulates not only the essential work that has
already been done, but (perhaps most critically) it sets the stage for future research.”
Andrej Zaslove, Radboud University, the Netherlands
The Populist Radical Right
The populist radical right is one of the most studied political phenomena in the social sciences,
counting hundreds of books and thousands of articles. This is the first reader to bring together
the most seminal articles and book chapters on the contemporary populist radical right in
western democracies. It has a broad regional and topical focus and includes work that has
made an original theoretical contribution to the field, which makes it less time-specific. The
reader is organized in six thematic sections:
(1) ideology and issues;
(2) parties, organizations, and subcultures;
(3) leaders, members, and voters;
(4) causes;
(5) consequences; and
(6) responses.
Each section features a short introduction by the editor, which introduces and ties together the
selected pieces and provides discussion questions and suggestions for further readings. The
reader is ended with a conclusion in which the editor reflects on the future of the populist
radical right in light of (more) recent political developments – most notably the Greek
economic crisis and the refugee crisis – and suggest avenues for future research.
Cas Mudde is Associate Professor in the School of Public and International Affairs (SPIA) at
the University of Georgia, USA, and a Researcher at the Center for Research on Extremism
(C-REX) at the University of Oslo, Norway.

This new series encompasses academic studies within the broad fields of ‘extremism’ and
‘democracy’. These topics have traditionally been considered largely in isolation by academics.
A key focus of the series, therefore, is the (inter-)relation between extremism and democracy.
Works will seek to answer questions such as to what extent ‘extremist’ groups pose a major
threat to democratic parties, or how democracy can respond to extremism without
undermining its own democratic credentials.
The books encompass two strands:
