The heritage and construction of the differentiated space of the alt-right

Abstract

This research argues that the alternative right is a new political movement with a membership that is substantially different from the militants that have traditionally occupied the political space of the right or extreme right. The characterization of the alternative right is confusing, since most of its scholars do it under the American parameters. Thus, this work aims to clarify some questions about the political space from which the alternative right is born, observe its characteristics and make sure that these demands are reflected in top-level and current political actors, to conclude that it is a space under construction. , but differentiated from other nearby ideological currents.
