It's EU election weekend! The far right is set to do well in these elections, and since I have written a bit the topic, I thought I'd do a thread summarizing some of the key points I make in my research on the far right and Europe. 1/

Giorgia Meloni’s Brothers of Italy is the successor of the “post-fascist” National Alliance & the “neo-fascist” Italian Social Movement.
But does the party share meaningful similarities with its predecessors?
@_mlorimer & @matheusagaso for @LSEEuroppblogblogs.lse.ac.uk/europpblog/2…
There are weeks where nothing happens, and others where by Wednesday you have 2 publications. Pleased to see this Annual Review piece (OA), co-authored with the splendid @Griffini_mari and @L_deJonge out in @JCMS_EU (OA: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
We compare the FR and NED snap elections and argue that in spite of differing political systems, they display similar tendencies in terms of governmental instability and far right mainstreaming.
Delighted to finally see this piece out! Around 3 years ago, @matheusagaso & I started thinking about whether Meloni's Brothers of Italy REALLY resembled its neo-fascist predecessor in any meaningful way. The results are now published in @PolStudies (OA): journals.sagepub.com/doi/epu…
