The latest from Arte Weekly: Far-right parties gain ground in several European countries. But how and why?

Across Europe, the firewall between the mainstream and the far right is starting to crack. From Germany’s AfD to Italy’s Fratelli d'Italia, parties that were once deemed outcasts are slowly gaining respect – after a surge in popularity. This week’s show breaks down the reasons for the shift.

This weekly News programme is produced by the Franco-German broadcaster ARTE and made available in 8 languages through a European media partnership formed by El País (ES), Gazeta Wyborcza (PL), Internazionale (IT), Kathimerini (GR), Le Soir (BE), Telex (HU) in coordination with ARTE. The project has been made possible with EU funding within the framework of the „European Media Platforms” preparatory action.
