Scholars and commentators have argued that national nostalgia forms a germane element of the rhetoric of populist radical right parties (PRRP). We addressed the national nostalgia component of PRRP ideology with respect to voters. Relying on political science theorizing and social psychological evidence, we proposed that national nostalgia forms a new emotion-based explanation for PRRP support within the cultural grievance framework. National nostalgia reflects grievances over perceived loss of the ethnically and culturally homogeneous moral community. Such grievances are subsequently mobilized by PRRP to justify and increase the persuasiveness of their nativist ideology. We hypothesized that voters who experience higher national nostalgia would evince stronger support for PRRP, due to national nostalgia's association with endorsement of PRRP's nativist ideology (i.e., ethnic nationhood and anti-Muslim attitudes). We tested this hypothesis by surveying a representative sample of native majority members in The Netherlands (N = 1,934). The results were consistent with the hypothesis, highlighting the relevance of national nostalgia for understanding PRRP success.

向往“美好的过去”：民族怀旧作为民粹激进右翼政党的新主人

学者和评论员认为，民族怀旧情绪是民粹激进右翼政党（PRRP）言论的紧要关头。我们针对选民探讨了PRRP意识形态的民族怀旧成分。依靠政治学理论和社会心理学证据，我们提出民族怀旧情绪在文化投诉框架内为PRRP支持提供了一种基于情感的新解释。民族的怀旧反映出人们对民族和文化上同质的道德社区的丧失感到不满。PRRP随后动员了这种不满，以证明并提高其本土主义意识形态的说服力。我们假设，由于民族怀旧，对民族怀旧情怀较高的选民将寻求对PRRP的更强支持。与PRPR的本土主义意识形态（即民族国籍和反穆斯林态度）的认可相关联。我们通过调查荷兰本地多数成员的代表性样本来检验该假设（N  = 1,934）。结果与假设相吻合，突显了民族怀旧对于理解PRRP成功的重要性。
