Abstract:

Although Marine Le Pen took advantage of the weakness of moderate conservative politicians to become the strongest voice on the right, the path to participation in governing has so far been blocked by the isolation of National Rally (RN) by other parties. A new opportunity for Le Pen may be the pandemic-related crises, disenchantment with elites, and the expansion of the protest vote. In the long run, the far-right may also be reinforced by governing camp's identity policies, which adopt some of RN's talking points and slogans, posing a threat to EU cohesion and Polish foreign policy.
