What to expect when you’re electing : the relationship between far-right strength and citizenship policy in Europe

Hansen, Michael A. LU and Clemens, Jennifer L. LU (2019) In Comparative European Politics p.673-695
Abstract

The analysis builds on previous research exploring the impact of far-right support on citizenship policy. Using Bayesian analyses, this research evaluates the impact of far-right success on citizenship policy restrictiveness and citizenship policy outcomes per year across 29 European countries between 2003–2014. Results reveal that far-right success is a statistically and substantively significant factor in determining citizenship policy restrictiveness as well as rates of naturalization. However, differential levels of impact suggest that far-right influence is not uniform throughout the policy process.
