| Description | Nowadays, the electoral success of the populist radical right is increasing across Europe. The objective of the study is to identify social factors which can potentially explain the geographical variability of the populist radical right in Czechia and Slovakia. The empirical analysis was based on multiple regression analysis. The results have shown that populist radical right parties in Czechia have larger support in districts with a lower voter turnout in the elections to the European parliament. And the share of the population with Slovak nationality is the most crucial factor for populist radical parties in Slovakia. |
