Senior Researcher Joe Mulhall interviews long term friend of HOPE not hate, and prominent scholar of the far right, Cas Mudde about his new book The Far Right Today. Mudde argues that we have entered a new 'wave' of far right development that can be seen across the world in the increased presence of far right ideas and parties in the mainstream of democratic countries.
Joe and Cas discuss the developments in the far right today, what drives them, and what can be done to address them. Mudde makes the explicit call to the mainstream right that they need to consider the limits of what and who they are willing to work with.
