The rise of the far right is a complex, transnational trend driven by factors like anti-immigration sentiment, economic anxieties, and disillusionment with traditional political parties. It is also fuelled by social media, which provides platforms for organising and spreading ideology, and is supported by narratives that blame immigrants for societal problems, creating a climate of fear and hostility, especially in countries with large minority populations.
