The phrases
far right, or extreme right, depict the broad range of political groups and philosophies
generally taken to be further to the right of the mainstream center-right on
the traditional left-right spectrum. Far right politics usually entails support
for social dissimilarity and social hierarchy, elements of social conservatism
and resistance to most forms of liberalism and socialism.
Both terms are also employed
to illustrate Nazi and fascist movements, and other groups who hold extreme
nationalist, chauvinist, xenophobic, racist, religious fundamentalist or
reactionary views. The most extreme right-wing movements have followed repression
and genocide against groups of people on the basis of their supposed
inferiority.
