Essay from the year 2020 in the subject Politics - Topic: International relations, , language: English, abstract: The essay discusses the emergence of new right wing movements in the context of international relations as evolved after the end of Cold War. The author attempts to link IR, history and political science theories to explain the phenomenon of Brexit, the last US elections and development in the Middle East. As a professionally trained historian I am inclined to permit some time to pass before writing about contemporary events. A historian is better able to analyze what has actually happened and in what direction the world is moving with a more reasoned perspective than that available immediately following an event. In 2016, the election of Donald Trump as the US president generated a plethora of analytical articles explaining the outcome. The overwhelming majority of mainstream media was not only surprised by his unexpected victory in the presidential campaign, but was equally appalled that populist rhetoric pregnant with ethnic and religious bias, accompanied with bald sexist comments, found such support in a country which for the last hundred years purported to lead the democratic world and exhibit exceptional moral superiority.
