The "Nouvelle Droite," or "New Right," is a political and cultural movement that emerged in France during the late 1960s. It seeks to promote a form of conservatism that emphasizes traditional values, national identity, and cultural heritage. The movement is often associated with intellectuals like Alain de Benoist, who advocate for a critique of liberalism and globalization. The Nouvelle Droite distinguishes itself from traditional right-wing politics by focusing on cultural issues rather than solely economic or political ones. It promotes ideas such as ethno-nationalism and critiques multiculturalism, arguing for the preservation of distinct cultural identities within Europe.
