Les religions abrahamites dans le discours du Front National dans le contexte d'extrêmes droites populistes européennes
In: Political Discourses at the Extremes: Expressions of Populism in Romance Speaking Countries, p. 53-81
This article analyses the image of the three abrahamic religions in the recent political programs of the French Front National (2012 and 2017) in a comparative perspective with other successful populist radical right-wing parties in EU-Countries of continental Western and Northern Europe. It will be shown that even if there is a common tendency of representing Islam negatively and avoiding overt antisemitism, there are differences with regard to Judaism and/or Israel as well as to the weight of Christianity for the national and/or European culture, which have interesting parallels with the national discourse traditions and the particular radical right-wing history of these parties.
