  Abstract:  Out of the numerous academic works concerning extremist parties, Sergiu Miscoiu’s National Front… strikes us from the very introduction by the self-assumed effort to accomplish a ‘well-rounded’ analysis of the issue rather than to refer to some particular details of it. Does the author succeed in this challenging mission? In order to answer this question, one must acknowledge the defining nature that the author attributes to the Front National that of a political phenomenon. In Miscoiu’s understanding, the Front National is a political phenomenon by three basic characteristics the mechanisms of its explosive growing, its duality (as “a synthesis of both various traditions and the contemporary anti-system currents”, p. 4), and the unpredictability of the consequences that it generates.
