Trade Union Strategies in the EU to address trade union members’ and workers’ growing propensity to vote for right wing populists and nationalists

Meiteashonraí an fhoilseacháin

This study analyses trade union strategies to address trade union members’ and workers’ growing likelihood to vote for Populism Radical Right (PRR) parties. The study focuses on four countries where PRR parties have different political stances and have achieved different levels of political support, namely Germany, Denmark, Spain and Hungary. These countries also have different patterns in their industrial relations and highlight distinctive features of national trade union movement. The report has been compiled based on desk research and individual national reports from national experts, involving semi-structured interviews with trade unions. The study shows that trade unions’ discourses and views on PRR parties differ in the countries studied. Overall, trade unions tend to be critical with PRR parties’ agenda. However, in some countries, notably Denmark, trade unions’ appeal to political neutrality means that critics are only focused on certain policy proposals or areas such as migration policies, and explicit critics toward PRR parties are not formulated. The study also identifies several trade unions’ direct and indirect actions against PRR parties, particularly in Germany, where the trade union movement has developed a comprehensive set of actions to counteract the rise of PRR parties and extremist movements.
