Özet:

The populist far-right parties, which establish a direct connection between the issue of immigration and the economic, social, cultural and security-related problems that societies experience and adopt opposition to immigration and immigrants as one of their main policy discourses, are getting more and more influential in the European politics today. Adding immigrants as an additional actor to the opposition thesis, which populism claims to exist between the ordinary people and the corrupt elite, and accusing the elitists of supporting them, these parties are dissimilar to other political bodies with their feature of nativism, a synthesis of ethnic nationalism and xenophobia. Feeding on the crisis and persistently present the issue of immigration to European societies as a crisis, the populist far-right parties claim that the existing establishment parties cannot understand the sensitivities of the people about this issue and cannot produce solutions to the problems and argue that they are the only realistic alternative. The National Rally Party in France, one of the oldest members of the group of populist far-right parties on the continent, adopts similar approaches to immigration and immigrant issues, and accordingly, takes a firm anti-multiculturalist political stand in relation to the integration of immigrant minorities into the French society.
