Abstract
En 中文
This review article discusses World of the Right: Radical Conservatism and Global Order, a collective volume that offers a compelling and original analysis of the global far right. Moving beyond electoral performance and national case studies, the book investigates the ideological foundations and cultural strategies that underpin the success of the far right. Drawing on intellectual history and political sociology, the authors argue that the radical conservative right has developed a coherent worldview, rooted in a critique of liberalism and sustained by a Gramscian-inspired counter-hegemonic project. The review highlights three key contributions of the volume: the strategic appropriation of Gramsci's thought, the far right's cultural activism through publishing and education, and the transnational cooperation among far right parties, particularly within the European Parliament. While acknowledging internal divisions and national specificities, the book convincingly shows that the far right is increasingly global in scope and ambition. By taking the far right seriously as an object of scholarly inquiry, World of the Right provides a valuable framework for understanding its ideological coherence and political strategies. The book is an important reading for both academics and policymakers seeking to grasp-and respond to-the far right's growing influence in contemporary global politics.
