LUCCA, Juan Bautista; IGLESIAS, Esteban  e  CASTRO ROJAS, Sebastian. The radical right and the electoral speech of Donald Trump, Jair Bolsonaro and Javier Milei. Rev. Urug. Cienc. Polít. [online]. 2025, vol.34, e614.  Epub 01-Dez-2025. ISSN 0797-9789.  https://doi.org/10.26851/rucp.34.11.

This article aims to analyze the discursive positioning in televised presidential campaign debates of three radical right figures: Donald Trump, Jair Bolsonaro, and Javier Milei. A grounded theory interpretation was conducted to identify how certain categories function as discursive articulators in the candidates’ rhetoric. The study employed a qualitative methodological design utilizing Atlas.Ti for code development and theoretical saturation of the three attributes comprising Cas Mudde’s conceptualization of the radical right: nativism, populism, and authoritarianism. The empirical evidence obtained enables the extension of the category’s analytical scope beyond the “Global North,” considering that all three case studies exhibit similar arguments and characterizations of these three foundational attributes of twenty-first-century radical right movements, despite varying contextual frameworks.

Palavras-chave : Radical right; speeches; nativism; populism; far right.
