Neue Publikation: How to counter the far right: lessons from Brazil
Autorin: Léonie de Jonge, Talita Tanscheit
Over the past few decades, the far right has been advancing across the globe, both electorally and through increased street–level mobilisation (Mudde 2019). While much attention has been paid to the causes and consequences of this rise, much less is known about how to counter it effectively. This policy brief outlines key strategic responses to the far right and draws lessons from Brazil, a country in which far right forces rapidly rose to power but subsequently were pushed back. The Brazilian case highlights how coordinated, multi–actor efforts can curb far right momentum and help safeguard democratic institutions.
