Prof. Agnes Akkerman is a Professor of Labour Law at the Amsterdam Law School, University of Amsterdam. Her research focuses on the impact of populist radical-right parties on immigration policy and social rights in Western Europe, particularly in the Netherlands. She has authored numerous publications analyzing political participation, gender policy agendas of radical-right parties, and the evolution of parties like the PVV. Her work bridges political science, legal studies, and policy analysis, with a strong emphasis on the interplay between ideology and governance.
Key research interests include the transformation of radical-right parties in office, gender dimensions in political agendas, and the role of liberal values in anti-immigration discourse. She has contributed to debates on democracy, populism, and institutional responses to political radicalization. Her writings span comparative analyses of EU member states and case studies on Belgium, Norway, and Finland.
Publications (2016–2019) highlight trends in radical-right policy adaptation, electoral strategies, and the paradoxes of governing for populist parties.
