Giorgia Meloni: The Rising Tide of Far-Right Populism in Italy | Andrej Zaslove, Joris Gijsenbergh

From Marine Le Pen to Viktor Orbán: the far-right parties in Europe are sending their congratulations to Italy. The Italian elections have concluded that Giorgia Meloni, leader of the Fratelli d’Italia, will likely become the new prime minister of Italy. As a new government is forming, a block of far-right and populist parties seems to have the majority. How can we explain the surge of these far-right parties? What does it mean for the state of Italian democracy? And will Meloni’s success have an impact on Italy’s position in the European Union? Come and learn from political scientist Andrej Zaslove and historian Joris Gijsenbergh about the rise of Giorgia Meloni and the Fratelli d’Italia.
