Alt-right

Alt-right eller alternative right (alternative højre) er en svagt defineret, bred og løst sammensat politisk bevægelse af højreorienterede, som er utilfredse med traditionel konservatisme.^[1] Bevægelsen består af alt lige fra liberalister til højreekstremister. Det ideologiske grundlag er en blanding af konservatisme, nationalisme, monokulturalisme og anti-egalitarisme.

Alt-right-ideologien beskrives af dens kritikere som racistisk, Sexistisk og blandt andet overlappende med ekstreme ideologier som antisemitisme, nynazisme, antimuslimsk, hvid nationalisme og højrepopulisme af New York Times. Bevægelsen er i høj grad et internetfænomen ifølge The New Yorker.^[1] Den identitære bevægelse i Europa svarer til USAs alt-right.^[2]

Kritikere af begrebet mener, at siden bevægelsen ikke er formelt organiseret, så er der slet ikke tale om en politisk bevægelse, men et ubrugeligt politisk mærkat, som de fleste alligevel vil undsige sig pga. de ekstreme elementer.
