Listen "How the Far Right Turned the EU Into a Political Weapon"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, we unpack the surprising relationship between far-right parties and the European Union, exploring how these groups transformed from political outcasts to mainstream contenders. Drawing insights from Marta Lorimer's work Europe as Ideological Resource, we examine how parties like the Movimento Sociale Italiano and Rassemblement National utilized EU platforms for financial, symbolic, and ideological gain. From adopting transnational identities to reframing liberty and national interest, their strategic use of EU resources has had profound implications for European politics.
