(en) France, Monde Libertaire - Ideas and Struggles: The Far Right, the Great Peril Followed by Censorship (ca, de, fr, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

Date Sun, 18 Oct 2026 07:19:49 +0300


Sad characters with dark ideas ---- On the cover, barely caricatured figures of the far right, behind the two leaders Le Pen and Bardella, Bolloré and his two obsessions on one of his newspapers (LFI and Islam), Zemmour, Trump, a woman from Nemesis, and a far-right thug. In the middle, the seat of power, the president's chair. The graphic novel published by La rue de l'échiquier obviously addresses the great peril: the rise of the far right to power. The author, Ugo Palheta, whom we know well, the talented illustrator Tommy, and the preface writer, Johann Chapoutot, who needs no introduction. ---- This rise of the National Rally seems inevitable; the Bolloré-owned media outlets, in particular, are constantly harping on the subject, especially since the institutional left is demonstrating its mediocrity through its divisions, and the right is pitting egos against each other more than substance. A shift from the right to the far right is likely. One only
needs to look at the rise of this sentiment in Europe. In France, the arrival of the National Rally (RN) will translate into repressive measures, a liberal economy, increased repression, and environmental damage. All of this is known, and no one can say they didn't know.

Everything is known

. The behavior of their elected officials in 2026 in municipalities and inter-municipal bodies is significantly more violent. "Normalization was just a way to gain power," an excerpt from the graphic novel.

The authors invite us to explore the history of the National Front (FN)/National Rally. Indeed, the RN originated with the National Front (FN), and the FN originated with former Waffen-SS members, collaborators, and members of the OAS... The flame, the symbol of the movement, comes from the heirs of Italian fascism, the Italian Socialist Movement (MSI). Violence isn't enough; they need a scapegoat, and let's not forget the infamous poster: "One million unemployed means one million immigrants too many," their stock-in-trade to this day, combined with a climate of insecurity. Their rise to power, election after election, from Le Pen Sr. to Le Pen Jr., skillfully orchestrating the "de-demonization" of the party to broaden their base. And their ideology: an ethno-racial conception of the people and hatred of "others," the source of all the ills plaguing the French nation. All this accompanied by a rejection of equality and minority rights. And all this has deep roots, from the Ancien Régime, from Maurras, culminating in the New Right, which wages a battle
of ideas against the Enlightenment, seeking to impose an ethno-differentialism that rejects all diversity, all mixing. A form of apartheid. With the myth of the Great Replacement!

A form of apartheid .

The authors' analysis of the National Rally's strategy reveals the polished rhetoric, denouncing laxity in schools, investing heavily in the media and digital platforms, and opportunistically cultivating xenophobia within an identity-based framework. And who can possibly subscribe to such nonsense? The lower middle class, fearing downward mobility! To convince them? Double standards, repeated and assertive lies. The bigger the lie, the more effective it is! This is not a party for the people. The pages relating to voting patterns are also enlightening.

Clearly, the complicity of the media in normalizing this phenomenon is evident throughout, as is that of business leaders and, whether intentionally or not, of political parties contributing to the erosion of social cohesion.

Presented in an attractive format, aided by its graphic design, this book, "The Far Right: The Great Peril," helps the reader situate this movement within its historical context. It provides a broader perspective to analyze the issues and risks involved. Essential reading.
