This paper is about the Progress Party and the part this political party plays in Norwegian immigration politics. The Progress Party has marked itself as a party in opposition to the dominant immigration- and integration policies in Norway, and has to a significant degree drawn popular support for its anti-immigration views. Adjectives such as anti-immigration, rightwing, populist, new right are often used to describe the party, and can certainly provide the first few indications of what kind of political party this is.
