nationalistright

Nationalistright is a term used to describe a political ideology that combines nationalism with right-wing political positions. It emphasizes strong national identity, sovereignty, and often advocates for policies that prioritize the interests of the nation and its people above international concerns. Core tenets typically include a belief in the importance of national culture, traditions, and borders, and a skepticism towards globalization and supranational organizations.

Politically, the nationalist right often aligns with conservative stances on social issues, economic protectionism, and a firm approach to law and order. They may support stricter immigration policies, aiming to preserve the perceived cultural and demographic homogeneity of the nation. Economically, there can be a tendency towards national industrial policy, protecting domestic industries from foreign competition, though specific economic approaches can vary widely among different nationalist right movements.

The term can encompass a broad spectrum of views, from moderate national conservatism to more extreme forms of ethno-nationalism or right-wing populism. While proponents see it as a legitimate expression of patriotism and a defense of national heritage, critics often associate it with exclusionary practices, xenophobia, and authoritarian tendencies. The specific policies and rhetoric associated with the nationalist right can differ significantly depending on the country and historical context in which it appears.
