ABSTRACT
Transformation of liberal democracies, referred to by some as post-democracy', has dramatically changed the party landscape in Western Europe as well as patterns of political participation. Critical frame analysis is a methodology to analyse policy debates, public discourses and media communication. The role of the Internet as an important means of contemporary politics has already triggered some important research. This chapter contributes to an epistemology and methodology to grasp the struggle over meaning and the ability of right-wing populist parties and organisations to organise consent and common sense about us' and the others'. The analysis of pictures and videos of right-wing websites includes first denoted meanings of the signs visible in the pictures and videos. The advantages of the critical frame analysis and the visual denotation connotation analysis to understand right-wing populist online communication, to sum up, are to detect the construction of antagonism, of the people' against other groups.
