This installment of Retro Report, a series of video documentaries about major news stories of the past that have a lasting impact, examines the rise and the legacy of Mr. Falwell, who before his death in 2007 yoked his movement to rightist politicians and helped shape their stance on major matters.

In 1992, after seeking to undercut the leftist guerrillas' appeal by granting limited democratic reforms, the rightist Salvadoran government agreed to a comprehensive peace treaty, ending the revolt that had transformed this tiny Central American nation into a war-torn surrogate for the Cold War between the East and West.

The newspaper Der Standard and weekly Profil jointly reported last week that one of the raids was at the home of a BVT official who is a witness rather than a suspect but who heads a department on extremism, and that information on extremist groups including rightist ones had been seized.

In Brazil, most recently, they strongly endorsed the election of the rightist ex-army officer Jair Bolsonaro – though he is a nominal Catholic – seeing in him one who would reverse the liberal legislation and expansion of the state under the previous Workers' Party government, which the evangelicals saw as threatening their conservative morality.

Meanwhile, justice has been plodding and less fierce for politicians from the coalition of center-right and rightist parties now opposing the PT. Brazil's right-leaning legislative majority has repeatedly voted to shield Rousseff's conservative replacement, current President Michel Temer, from prosecution on corruption charges more severe than those that faced Lula.

While Trump's hardline immigration policies reap great support from the minority of voters who support him and would form the foundation for a future Trump rightist media venture, they are anathema to far more voters and are seen by huge numbers of Hispanic voters as a declaration of political war against them.

The narrowness of the victory also reflected the big strides into the mainstream the far right has made not only in Austria, but in much of Europe — from neighboring Hungary and Poland, where it already holds sway, to France and Germany, where rightist movements are polling strongly before national elections next year.

Driving this hardened U.S. stance is the growing assertiveness of more hawkish White House aides led by Bolton, Vice President Mike Pence's deep engagement on the issue, a push by anti-Maduro U.S. lawmakers and the arrival of like-minded rightist presidents in Brazil and Colombia, according to people familiar with the matter.

Meanwhile, my Uighur contacts outside China were pointing to the quota-based purges of the Communists' Anti-Rightist campaign of 1957-59 and ever-shifting rules during the Cultural Revolution to explain that even if Uighurs in Xinjiang today wanted to submit wholly to the security regime, they no longer knew how to.

It is a rightist, nativist, nationalist and, yes, "völkisch" reaction against globalization, against migration, against miscegenation, against the disappearance of borders and the blurring of genders, against the half-tones of political correctness, against Babel, against the stranger and the other, against the smug self-interested consensus of the urban, global elite.

First, the "human rights disasters" mentioned in Charter 08 are all facts that have occurred in contemporary China: the Anti-Rightist Campaign wrongly labeled more than 500,000 people as rightists; the Great Leap Forward caused the unnatural deaths of as many as 10 million people; the Cultural Revolution created a national catastrophe.

France faces a choice between many things Sunday as it votes to elect either the rightist Marine Le Pen or the centrist Emmanuel Macron as president, but the most fundamental issue is whether to uphold or abandon the values of the Republic, whether to hold the high ground or descend into the mire.

I think what the Cultural Revolution had shown was that the violence, with which the Communist Party had ruled China until that time — the various campaigns, the land reforms, the campaigns against counter-revolutionaries, the Anti-Rightist campaign — all that had been injected into the body politic, so the young people almost absorbed it through their skin.

By the end of the week Steve Bannon, who may have more power in the Republican Party than Trump or McConnell, was mobilizing to find more rightist candidates to attack and defeat more incumbent Republican senators in 2018 and pressure them to retire and not run again, a course now chosen by the widely respected Sen.

Glazer and his friends had called attention to the emergence of the radical right in the 1950s and developed theories to explain it; their major contribution was the notion that those attracted to rightist movements, first McCarthy and then Goldwater and his followers, were losing status and sought in authoritarian politics a way to make up for their loss.

In Scotland, national identity is not invoked in the defense of someone who fears that someone is going to take something away from them, which — as has been pointed out — is one reason to describe the "out of nowhere" nature of the Brexit vote, Trump's level of support, and the rise of rightist parties in Europe.

In the ideology of Steve Bannon, Trump's chief strategist, Wilders, the French nationalist leader Marine Le Pen, Prime Minister Viktor Orban of Hungary, and Poland's rightist string-puller Jaroslaw Kaczynski are part of the vanguard in what Bannon sees as the coming "very brutal and bloody conflict" for a white-dominated Christian order against Muslims, migration and miscegenation.

The sway of neoliberal economics favoring the wealthy in Western societies, the departure offshore of manufacturing jobs, stagnant wages, large refugee flows from war zones, media outlets with tribal followings and the flourishing of violent anti-Western jihadi ideology in an Arab world of blocked political systems have created a near-perfect storm for rightist populists of the Abbott and Trump ilk.

The left has governed Emilia-Romagna since World War Two and Salvini has campaigned relentlessly in the region, seeking a shock victory that he hoped would bring down the fragile national government, which includes PD. An exit poll for state television RAI said the PD incumbent was seen taking between 47.0%-51.0% of the vote, while the rightist candidate looked on course to take 44.0%-48.0%.

The left has governed Emilia-Romagna since World War Two, but Salvini has campaigned relentlessly in the region hoping to pull off a shock victory that would destabilize the national government in Rome, which includes the PD. An exit poll for state television RAI said the PD incumbent was seen taking between 47.0%-51.0% of the vote, while the rightist candidate looked on course to take 44.0%-48.0%.

The list also includes Nigel Farage, the brash British politician who oversaw the underdog campaign for the Brexit, and admires both President Putin and President Trump; Nick Griffin of the far-right British National Party, who after observing Russian legislative elections in 2011 pronounced them "much fairer than Britain's"; and Matteo Salvini of the rightist and separatist Lega Nord (Northern League), which along with the populist 5 Stelle party constitutes a large pro-Moscow bloc in Italy.
