Over the past decades, demographic and societal shifts have reshaped Western Europe's political landscape. While much attention has been given to the decline of social democracy and the rise of the populist radical right, the trajectory of the mainstream right has been comparatively overlooked. This presentation addresses this gap by highlighting the crucial role mainstream right parties have historically played in upholding liberal democracy in the region—a role that is increasingly uncertain. Although empirical evidence suggests that these parties generally support liberal democratic norms, they face growing pressures that may lead them to accommodate or amplify the illiberal agenda of the populist radical right. Whether through coalition-building or governance arrangements, mainstream right parties risk legitimizing far-right ideas and practices, with profound consequences for democratic stability. Understanding this dynamic is essential not only for assessing the future of social democracy but also for safeguarding democratic integrity in Western Europe and beyond.
Dr. Cristóbal Rovira Kaltwasser is a Professor at the Institute of Political Science at the Pontifical Catholic University of Chile and Director of the Laboratory for the Study of the Far Right (Ultra-Lab). He has published extensively on populism from a comparative perspective and is currently researching the far right in Latin America within a broader global framework.
We hope you'll join us for this event on Monday, April 28 in McGhee Library from 11:00 AM-12:00 PM. Free lunch will be provided!

The White House

Historic buildings

泰迪小熊

Came on September 22, 2017. I heard that the White House has not been open to the public since 911, and we can only look far outside the fence when we go, so the White House has become a boring landmark, taking a photo of the tourists who &ldquo;come here&rdquo; to check in. There is a big pine tree on the south side of the White House, and I didn&rsquo;t expect it to be a &ldquo;landmark&rdquo; and a &ldquo;national Christmas tree&rdquo;... Well, it seems that you should pick Christmas to visit.

United States Capitol

_We***42

⌚️ Time: 8:30-16:30, Monday-Saturday Capitol Hall appointment visit is free, but the number of daily visits is limited, it is best to make an appointment in advance, we are 9:30 in the morning, they will give you a white stick on the clothes (see picture 1, the mother&#39;s chest is white, Green is the Library of Congress). There is only one time period that is Mandarin interpretation. I thought it was Chinese. The result was a foreign sister. I was quite surprised. I thought she could speak Chinese. The result was that she said English to us and translated it into Mandarin with translation software! Can&#39;t they find an American Chinese to serve? But what should be the matter, the young lady has a very good attitude, and she took the initiative to take a photo with us! The Capitol is a must-check stop for Washington. The whole building is also very magnificent and distinctive. The pearl-white marble building is a three-story dome towering in the center of the three-story flat-top building. The sculpture at the top of the Capitol is the free woman sleeve god, the Capitol Library. It is also suitable for punching in together, and most museums in Washington are free to the public.

Lincoln Memorial

[Cost-effective] 24 hours free opening, although we went to 6 o&#39;clock, but winter ❄️ dark early. But the momentum is still the same. But how do you feel that Taipei&#39;s Zhongzheng Memorial Hall and Lincoln Memorial Hall are so similar! [View] Needless to say, the atmosphere is magnificent! Facing the Washington Monument! At this time, I suddenly remembered that Chairman Mao&#39;s poem &quot;Jiangshan so many beautiful, attracted countless heroes to fold!

National Gallery of Art

Specialty exhibition halls

陌染MM

The National Gallery of Art is located in Washington, D.C. and is managed by the Smithsonian Institution. The building itself is divided into two buildings, east and west, which can be connected by underground passages or across the street on the ground. It also includes a sculpture park. The museum is free to visit and is closed on Sundays.

I originally went there for Leonardo da Vinci&#39;s original works, but when I arrived, I found that the exhibition part of Leonardo da Vinci&#39;s original works was not open, which was a pity. There are more than 40,000 products in the entire exhibition hall, from the European Middle Ages to the modern era, including oil paintings, sculptures, prints, sketches, etc. There are exhibits. It takes about 1 hour to visit here. There is a coffee shop inside. You can take a map to see the specific location.
