- Abstract
- This essay develops a theory for the explanation of the diffrences in succes of Radical Right Populist Parties in Western Europe.

While Radical Right Populist Parties in the form of the Vlaams Belang has great succes in Flanders, radical right populism has only been succesful for a short term in the Netherlands in 2002 with the Lijst Pim Fortuyn. These two case studies support the theory described in this essay and show that Radical Right Populist Parties only can be succesfull if there is the right ?supply?, ?demand? and ?mobilisation?.
