Objective
FREITPWP examines the genesis, evolution, and demise of several neo-fascist networks and organizations that operated across European borders during the post-war period (late 1940s to 1970s). These include the European Social Movement (ESB), the European New Order (NEO), and the National Party of Europe (NPE). The study puts forth a novel theoretical framework for analyzing these networks: far-right Europeanism, which is defined as a commitment to the political, economic, and cultural consolidation of the European continent among far-right agents, organizations, and parties, who based their inter-European collaboration on exclusionary, illiberal, anti-democratic, and racist ideas of Europe. The explicit emphasis on the notion of Europe as an ideological rationale for far-right internationalism represents a significant departure from the existing scholarship on right-wing politics in Europe. The study's long-term perspective, which links the inter-war and post-war periods to the present day, provides groundbreaking insights into the continuity and discontinuity of Europe's role in the international cooperation of the far right throughout the ""long"" 20th century. The project draws upon archival research conducted in a range of European countries, incorporates interdisciplinary methodological innovations, and collaborates with multiple experts in the field.""
