Fundamentalism and its impact on the rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association 2016, para. 70
Párrafo- Paragraph text
- Anti-immigration sentiments, often based on cultural and nationalist ideologies, have strengthened the popularity of many right-wing political parties, especially in Europe. Nationalist parties in countries such as Austria, Denmark, Hungary and Switzerland, among others, have attracted significant support in recent elections. The Special Rapporteur is extremely concerned that the acceptance and adoption by political actors of attitudes of cultural or national superiority has triggered a process of gradually legitimizing racism and xenophobia. This can have devastating consequences, as history has proved time and again. He stresses that States are obliged to take measures to guard against such an eventuality.
