Abstract
The sudden emergence, the assassination and the subsequent electoral success of the Dutch right-wing populist Pim Fortuyn (1948–2002) are some the most intriguing occurrences in Dutch politics. This book provides the first comprehensive analysis of this phenomenon in a language other than Dutch. Who was Fortuyn? What defined his more traditionally liberal/libertarian brand of right-wing populism? Who voted for him? The book covers the short-lived participation of his party (List Pim Fortuyn, LPF) in a government coalition as well its long-term impact on Dutch politics and the party system. Current populist leaders such as Geert Wilders and Thierry Baudet are building upon that legacy.
