Özet
This section examines the rise of far-right political movements in Europe in the context of anti-immigration, populism, and security discourses. Focusing particularly on developments in France and Germany, the rhetorical strategies, social responses, and the relationship of these strategies with the security policies of far-right parties are analyzed. It evaluates how far-right actors have been legitimized and institutionalized with populist and exclusionary discourses in both countries following the post-2015 refugee crisis. The study is guided by a robust theoretical framework shaped around populism, securitization, and anti-immigration, which provides a clear structure and methodology for the case studies. This study addresses the rise of the far-right not only as a political transformation but also as the construction of a cultural hegemony.
