Esmee Bakker

I am a researcher in the field of political science, where I focus on the rise and normalisation of far-right parties and movements in Europe and beyond. I am particularly interested in the cultural and everyday dimensions of far-right politics. Additionally, I study the mainstreaming of far-right actors and ideologies.

In my current research project, I focus on far-right actors, especially political parties and movement parties; the mainstreaming and normalisation of far-right actors and ideologies; as well as the gender politics of the far right.
