Original language description
The electoral success of far right, far left, and populist parties is increasingly visible in Europe. These parties won on average of 21.4% of the vote in the parliamentary el ections in the EU28 countries between 2008 and 2014. Their electoral success continued in following years 2015 and 2016, with Spanish far left We can winning 20.7%, Irish populist Sinn Féin 13.8%, and Slovakia far right Peoples Party Our Slovakia 8.0% of the vote. Three reasons are recently discussed as determinants of the electoral success: economic crisis, immigration flows, and uncovered tensions in the European society. We concentrate on first two topics. Economic crisis struck Europe in 2008 and it la sted in some countries for more than 4 years. Majority of the EU28 countries has experienced a recovery in the previous two years but the benefits of economic growth are unequally distributed in the societies. Living standard of many voters deteriorated an d their scepticism persist for the future.
