The special theme of the fourth issue of the Journal is “The Rise and Future of the Populist Radical Right in Europe”. This special issue seeks to examine the drivers behind the increasing popularity of Populist Radical Right (PRR), their opposition to immigration, globalisation, and multiculturalism, and their impact on European and national politics. Furthermore, this issue invites for a critical examination and analysis of the current and future prospects of the PRR in Europe, with a particular focus on its potential impact on governance and political opposition at the national and European levels. We welcome interdisciplinary research from a variety of academic perspectives, including but not limited to political science, sociology, history, law cultural studies, and media studies. Contributions may include empirical studies, theoretical analyses, case studies, and comparative studies that examine the phenomenon of PRR in Europe.
