Rosaura Ruiz Gutiérrez, head of the Secretariat of Science, Humanities, Technology, and Innovation (Secihti), recently stated that the academic study of far-right political movements is both legitimate and necessary. Her comments addressed the role of scientific and humanistic research in analyzing contemporary political trends.
Ruiz Gutiérrez emphasized that such research becomes particularly relevant when specific political expressions move outside the boundaries of democratic debate. By framing the study of these ideologies as a matter of public interest, the Secretariat underscores the importance of institutional analysis in understanding shifts within the political landscape.
