This book examines how the proximity to government and different institutional roles-being in opposition, government or supporting a minority government-influence European radical right-wing populist (RRWP) parties' discourse.

Analysing case studies of different institutional roles - Finns Party (opposition), Fidesz (government) and the Danish People's Party (supporting a minority government) - the book presents how the framing of the RRWP's ideology and policies adapt to decision-making and power. It investigates whether there are alternative factors which better explain the possible changes in tone - such as domestic or foreign events - and finds that the party discourse is such a robust and identifying character of the RRWP parties that the different institutional roles do not moderate as previously thought.
