The rise of right-wing extremism and the emergence of its influence in the political landscape in many countries of the world, particularly in several European countries, these political and social phenomena received unprecedented attention over the last two decades, whether by Governments, international organizations, research centers, academic studies, civil society organizations, and human rights in various countries of the world, The main reasons for this concern are the arrival of certain extreme right-wing parties and figures that espouse ideologies and principles based on racism, extremism and rejection of others and that embrace hate speech and incitement to violence against refugees and migrants communities, particularly the Muslim community, in several countries in Europe, India, and Brazil.

The common ideological foundations of the European far-right are based on four pillars: (Nationalism, hostility to foreigners, the maintenance of law and order, and the chauvinistic view of welfare) the country must ensure through its social policy the well-being of members of the nation excluding foreigners, these parties view migrants as a threat to national identity, the main cause of crime, and are exploiters of the country’s welfare. The discourse employed by the extreme right in its political programs and electoral campaigns focuses on the problem of cultural identity and threats of globalization or migration, for its civilizational, linguistic, and even national specificity, as the most important weapon to promote its extremist agendas, and preventing the entry of foreigners and the expulsion of their residents to protect “national identity”, a speech so extreme as to call for withdrawal from the European Union, or the abolition of the unified European currency.
