FATIGUE: Delayed Transformational Fatigue in Central and Eastern Europe: Responding to the Rise of Illiberalism/Populism 

An international consortium of six universities, led by UCL SSEES, has received 3.5 million Euros for an innovative training network that over four years will train fifteen Early Stage Researchers. The project, Delayed Transformational Fatigue in Central and Eastern Europe: Responding to the Rise of Illiberalism/Populism (FATIGUE), is designed to study one of the most pressing issues of our time, the rise of right-wing populism in post-communist Europe (and Europe, more generally).

The Project Leaders are Dr Richard Mole (Principal Investigator and Programme Director) and Prof Jan Kubik (Scientist-in-Charge and Managing Director), UCL SSEES.
