Since the Ukrainian crisis in 2014, Russia's support to the European far right-and to a variety of populist leaders more globally-has become a cornerstone of the West's perception of Moscow as a "spoiler" on the international scene. The fact that Russia's most fervent supporters are now to be found on the right of the ideological spectrum should not be a surprise. The European far right has always had Russophile tendencies, but these were obscured during the Cold War, when rightist politics were most of all anti-Communist. Entangled Far Rights traces the "intellectual romance" that existed between European far right groups and their Russian-Soviet counterparts during the twentieth century and accounts for their recent re-emergence.
