Neo-fascists at the political scene of the new EU member-states

Lost wars, nostalgia for the majestic greatness, economic and political crises make up perfect grounds for the extremist, nationalistic and purely fascist organizations. It’s only JOBBIK that openly tells the truth about its sympathies towards Nazism but the line that separates the slightly more civilized ultra-rights from the outright Hungarian fascist is so thin that the threat of the European fascistization doesn’t look that unreal anymore.
Twenty years ago Nobel Prize winner Czesław Miłosz, having paraphrased the Marxism classics, said: "Ghost is wandering across the Europe, ghost of the nationalism this is". In a contemporary Europe nationalists, balancing on the verge of fascism, have become a visible power. While in June of 2009 JOBBIK obtained only 3 mandates at the European Parliament elections, mind that it would be 13 deputies from the United Kingdom Independent Party, 4 representatives of Dutch People’s Party for Freedom and Democracy, 3 members of the Greater Romania Party, 2 members of the Bulgarian National Union Attack, 2 members from the Austrian Freedom Party, 2 members from Danish People’s Party, 1 deputy from the Slovak National Party and one more deputy from the True Finns Party who will take the seats besides them.

All of them are unified by the extremist nationalism, euro-skepticism and xenophobia. It’s only JOBBIK that openly tells the truth about its sympathies towards Nazism but the line that separates the slightly more civilized ultra-rights from the outright Hungarian fascist is so thin that the threat of the European fascistization doesn’t look that unreal anymore.
