유럽 극우정당의 현황과 득표율 연구

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to examine the formation and development of the extreme right parties in the EU, their electoral outputs and relationship between racism and the parties’activities. This study is based on the comparative research on the change of the parties’getting voting rate in EU member countries’national, presidential and local elections. It also analyzes the relationship between the degree of racism and the far right parties’getting voting rate in individual countries through the research. It shows that the increase of immigrant population and international migration have not been able to cause the supports of the extreme right parties in various elections, so the parties have not influenced and initiated the change of political party systems in European countries. However, there are some concerns about the growth of muslim communities that will be able to influence the development of racist politics and the parties. In particular, the debates in regard to the joining of Turkey into the EU will be able to result in the enhancement of the parties’new movements in political society.
