The attitudes of right-wing political groups on immigration policy are not completely consistent, but there is indeed a stronger tendency to oppose open immigration policies as a whole. This tendency is usually related to its political philosophy, cultural values, and economic and social demands, and its specific manifestations vary from country to country, historical background, and specific policies. The following are the key analysis points： --- ### 1. **The relationship between the core positions of the right and immigration policy** -**Cultural identity and nationalism**: The right generally emphasizes the maintenance of national culture, traditions and national identity, and believes that large-scale immigration may dilute mainstream culture and cause social division. For example, right-wing political parties in Europe (such as the French National League and the German Alternative Party) often regard immigration as a threat to local culture. -**Security and order**: The right tends to link immigration to rising crime rates and the risk of terrorism, and advocates strict border controls to ensure national security. -**Economic protectionism**: Some on the right believe that immigrants will seize local employment opportunities and consume social welfare resources, especially low-skilled immigrants may intensify competition at the bottom. --- ### 2. **Regional differences and policy complexity** - **Europe**: Right-wing political parties (such as the Brothers of Italy and the Hungarian Youth League) usually strongly oppose immigration, especially refugees and non-EU immigrants from the Middle East and Africa, and often link immigration issues to Islamic cultural penetration and welfare burden. -**United States**: The mainstream Republican Party is more concerned about combating illegal immigration (such as the US-Mexico border issue), but its attitude towards legal immigration is relatively divided: some support skilled immigration (to meet economic needs), and some oppose “chain immigration” and “lottery system.” -**Australia/Canada**: Right-wing political parties (such as the Liberal Party of Australia) may be more supportive of “selective immigration”, that is, giving priority to the admission of highly skilled or economic contributors, but oppose refugee quotas. -*****: The right may pay less attention to immigration issues and focus more on nationalism and economic autonomy (such as the Bharatiya Janata Party). --- ### 3. **Diversity of motivations against immigration** -**Populism strategy**: The right often portrays immigration as a symbol of “elites ignoring the interests of the people”, and uses anti-immigration slogans to attract voters who are dissatisfied with the status quo. -**Real policy disputes**: Part of the opposition stems from concerns about the failure of immigrants to integrate (such as the isolation of certain Muslim communities in Europe). -**Exceptions**: A few right-wingers support specific immigrants, such as those with similar religious backgrounds (Christian immigrants enter Europe and the United States) or fill labor gaps (for example, some Japanese conservatives support limited immigration). --- ### 4. **The border of "anti-immigration”: Legal vs. illegal** Many right-wing parties emphasize the distinction between legal and illegal immigrants： -**Support legal immigration**: Especially skilled immigrants and investment immigrants, but strict review is required. -**Oppose illegal immigration**: Advocate strengthening border law enforcement and deporting undocumented persons (such as the Trump administration's “zero tolerance” policy). --- ### 5. **Exceptions and trends** -**Pressure from economic realities**: The right wing of countries with aging populations (such as Japan and Italy) may be forced to relax immigration policies to supplement the labor force. -**Far right vs. Moderate right-wing**: The far-right (such as the German Alternative for Germany) may completely reject immigration, while the moderate right (such as the British Conservative Party) may accept some immigration policy reforms. --- ### Conclusion Right-wing supporters ** are generally more inclined to restrict immigration**, especially non-selective, large-scale, or culturally distinct immigrants, but their degree of opposition and expression are affected by national context, economic needs, and political strategies. This position is rooted in the priority considerations of cultural sovereignty, national security, and economic protection, but it also requires attention to strategic adjustments within the right (such as policy softening under electoral politics).
