In 'Europe deserves better', the authors take a closer look at extreme nationalism and study three parties that are expected to win more support in the forthcoming elections to the European Parliament in May 2014 - Hungarian Jobbik, the Dutch Party for Freedom and the Danish People's Party. By describing their history, achievements and setbacks, we hope to contribute to better knowledge that in turn may facilitate an understanding of why these movements are gaining ground and how they should be met.
