Résumé
This paper demonstrates the heuristic value of using a multiscalar perspective to analyse right-wing populist discourse, especially in borderland regions. While it is commonly posited that right-wing populist ideology implies a Manichean dichotomy between in- and out-groups, this study reveals that right-wing populist discursive strategies can thrive in multiscalar contexts. To substantiate this claim, the article conducts a comparative analysis of the discourses employed by a set of right-wing populist parties in borderland regions of Western Europe during the COVID-19 pandemic. The findings highlight that although these parties’ discourse predominantly revolves around the national scale, there is a complex interplay among subnational, national, cross-border and supranational scales. By advocating for the reinstatement of border controls during the crisis, European right-wing parties engage in scalar reconfiguration.
