LEFT HANGING ON THE RIGHT: Eoin O’Malley
The recent violent protests in France were attributed to far-left elements. In a milieu where far right interests are gaining support across Europe, this was something of an anomaly. For DCU associate professor of politics, Eoin O’Malley, this scenario suggests that perhaps the media and many in politics are putting too much emphasis on threats from the far-right and perhaps should look at what kind of ideology is really being espoused in Irish public life. Eoin O’Malley is this week’s guest on the podcast. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
