Is Dutch Bad Boy Thierry Baudet the New Face of the European Alt-Right

Abstract

On the first day of June in 2017, Dutch National Television crews were at the ready when a moving truck pulled into the stately cobblestone courtyard of the parliament in The Hague. The truck's load, a black grand piano, had been the subject of conversation for months. As the movers wheeled the blanket-covered instrument into the parliament building under the watchful eyes of its 34-year-old owner, it was clear they were ushering in a fresh chapter in the history of Dutch right-wing populism. The movement to save Dutch national culture has a new leader and he plays Brahms.
