This paper examines the reasons why there has been a raise in right wing populism (RWP) in Western Europe. The paper pays specific interest to the 1994 Italian legislative elections and the 2002 French presidential contest. The aim of the study is to assess what the new breed of right-wing populist (RWP) parties would achieve. Topics like heritage, surges, party assets, and long term prospects are all examined.
