The first half of the 20th century saw the rise of political organizations characterized by clearly identifiable ideologies rooted in local communities, the so-called mass parties; however, this organizational model is now widely assumed to belong to the past. Citizens are seen to disengage from party politics, and in an age of mass and new social media, old as well as new parties can reach out to the electorate without the need for extensive face-to-face interaction. However, the mass party model has proven to be resilient and indeed successful among several populist radical right parties (PRRPs), which criticize established parties precisely for having lost touch with ordinary citizens. Through an analysis of party structures and interviews with 125 PRRP elites and 100 active members, this book investigates why and how several contemporary PRRPs in Western Europe adopt this supposedly outdated mass party organizational model. It considers four populist radical right mass party organizations in Belgium, Finland, Italy, and Switzerland, and reveals that party elites consider the mass party model advantageous to their party's electoral goals, organizational functioning, and survival. Populist Radical Right Parties in Action shows how a collective sense of efficacy is key in keeping activist members motivated to invest time and effort in party activities, despite them experiencing stigmatization and getting few concrete benefits in return. Based on its findings, the book re-evaluates conventional wisdom of party organization theory and shows how traditional forms of party organization adapt to changing political contexts and communication environments.This is an open access title available under the terms of a CC BY-NC 4.0 International licence.

This book adopts an innovative conceptualization and analytical framework to the study of anti-system parties, and represents the first monograph ever published on the topic. It features empirical research using original data and combining large-N QCA analyses with a wide range of in-depth case studies from 18 Western European countries. The book adopts a party-centric approach to the study of anti-system formations by focusing on the major turning points faced by such actors after their initial success: long-term electoral sustainability, the different modalities of integration at the systemic level and the electoral impact of transition to government. The author examines in particular the interplay between crucial elements of the internal supply-side of anti-system parties such as their organizational and ideological features, and the political opportunity structure. Anti-System Parties is a major contribution to the literature on populism, anti-establishment parties and comparative political parties.

A concise and analytically rigorous guide to one of the most contested concepts in contemporary politics. Understanding Populism is driven by a clear objective: to advance understanding of populism by systematically dismantling the myths that continue to dominate public discourse and, at times, academic debate. The book approaches populism as a coherent yet flexible set of ideas that can be analyzed through careful conceptual clarification and comparison.The book opens with an unconventional introduction structured as a dialogue that directly addresses common misunderstandings and establishes the volume’s analytical orientation. The core of the book consists of 101 short chapters organized into six thematic sections, each devoted to critically examining a central myth about populism. Each section concludes with a synthetic reflection highlighting key insights.
