Strange Bedfellows: Anti-Immigrant Conservatives and Environmentalists Join Forces in Europe - January 16, 2020

from Deep Dish on Global Affairs · host Sam Jones, Brian Hanson, Chicago Council on Global Affairs

Chancellor Sebastian Kurz of Austria, the young head of a conservative party deeply opposed to immigration, has just formed a coalition government with Austria's Green party. Having adopted a platform that is anti-immigration, pro-business, and pro-environment, the odd pairing of these parties holds important and timely lessons for the larger realignment of left-right politics taking place across Europe, not least in Europe's biggest economy, Germany. Sam Jones of the Financial Times joins Deep Dish to discuss.
