ABSTRACT
Currently, in different countries of Europe, America, and Asia, radical right-wing parties have gained unusual relevance in the political scene. They have achieved a growing electoral success, gathering votes from different social sectors, and even occupying positions in government. This has been the case in Spain, where the recent VOX party has gone in just 5 years from formation to deciding who will govern in cities and regions. Thus, these parties, clearly linked to the most conservative religious and economic powers and which express their nostalgia for dictatorial regimes and fascist movements, paradoxically manage to present themselves as anti-establishment, and as voicing anti-politics (Trump, Bolsonaro). This political stance, which accounts for a good part of the success of these political formations, is made possible by some of the key features of their discourse. This is precisely the focus of this chapter, which analyses the discursive practices of the radical right in Spain today, showing how they build an anti-establishment image, even a revolutionary one, and how, in the face of hegemonic discourses, they seek to generate new hegemonies that put into circulation other knowledges, other values and ideologies, and, simultaneously, deeply polarize societies, resorting to conspiracy theories and right-libertarianism neo-liberalism.
