Over the past two decades, progressive politics have largely defined the industrialized world. However, economic stagnation, immigration concerns, and frustration with cultural debates have sparked a dramatic shift toward the right.
The political resurgence of Donald Trump is the most visible example of this rightward turn. Across Europe, right-leaning and populist parties now dominate the political landscape. This isn’t just another cyclical political swing—it reflects a deeper rejection of elites by a working class that feels overlooked and abandoned.
The message from voters, particularly those outside urban centers, is clear: They are demanding change as the pendulum continues to swing right.
