    Many opinion columnists think so. Further evidences are the rejection of the new constitution in Italy and Austria almost electing a Neo-Nazi as president.

    What are the greatest fears experienced by people associated with the Far-right Nationalist movements? ( of today and not necessarily of the past)
    • Fear of potential state sanctioned ethnic cleansing - genocide
    • Loss of democratic freedoms - Dictatorship - Emperor etc
    come to mind but maybe I am wrong...
    are there other strong fears associated?
