This edited volume examines populist radical right parties in the Nordic region.
Somewhat surprisingly given the image of a consensual, egalitarian, and progressive region of Europe, the Nordic countries have been fertile ground for the radical right. Not only have radical right parties persisted for many decades, but they are currently much stronger in this region than in most other European countries today. In this book, the contributors analyse the electoral, ideological, and organisational aspects of the radical right in the Nordic region: The Progress Party in Norway (Fremskrittspartiet, FrP), the Sweden Democrats (Sverigedemokraterna, SD), Danish People's Party (Dansk Folkeparti, DF), and the Finns party (Perussuomalaiset, PS). It also explores how mainstream parties and the media have reacted to the rise of the radical right, whether the radical right is integrated into mainstream politics, the extent to which they challenge the dominant ideological paradigm of Nordic politics and whether they mobilise and organise differently to other parties. Understanding the Nordic radical right is crucial to comprehending the transformation of Nordic politics but also changes in European politics more generally.
This book will be of interest to students and scholars of Scandinavian politics, populism, the radical right, and comparative party politics.

'The Nordic countries are home to some populist radical right parties that have made clear political imprints in the latest decades. In this rare volume scholars from political science, media studies and sociology try to understand and explain the crucial role these parties have played in Nordic politics. The story turns out to be somewhat surprising as it contains so much more than only anti-immigrant positions. A piece of Nordic contemporary political history that should be read by anyone interested in parliamentary right-wing radical movements and ideologies.'

'This edited volume is a must read for those interested the populist radical right in what was once believed to be the most stable and tolerant part of Europe. It covers the Nordic populist radical right in its many facets, discussing its core characteristics, as well as its behaviour in the electoral, legislative, and executive arena. It convincingly demonstrates that the Nordic populist radical right is part of the broader far right party family, but is at the same time comprised of four unique parties. Due to historical path dependencies, which are explored in-depth and offer many novel insights, each of the populist radical right parties in the region has become successful on its own terms.'
