Statement in Washington Times about populism and anti-islamism in Europe

German political scientist Florian Hartleb notes that populist right-wing groups using anti-Islam rhetoric are making gains in European governments, including famously tolerant Scandinavia. He says “multiculturalism has [offered] a certain kind of vision” for Europe over the years.
“But there has been a very negative debate on this topic – especially combined with Islamism,” says Mr. Hartleb. “This anti-Islam topic is a winning formula for right-wing groups.”
