Zarrar Khuhro, Editor of T-Magazine, does a roundup of some events that are expected to take place in the new year, including the United States (US) presidential elections. He says events in 2011 will develop and culminate into new pardigms in 2012 across the globe.
Khuhro says 2012 will see the continued rise of the right-wing, not just in the United States (US), but also in Europe and the Middle East.

The article doesn't tell any reason.
It is fallacy to assume this happens on its own. If you destroy the economies and push people toward poverty you are left with nationalism and eventually fascism. The number one culprit is banking oligarchs who destroy the economy by stifling money circulation. These are the same bank which wrecked German economy which gave rise to Hitler, later financed him to enforce new world order over the world. Bank of International Settlement is still there which wrecked the world, financed Hitler.
Get rid of this financial oligarchs and their banks, increase the money supply to facilitate trade and this right wing would disappear within year or two.
Realistic viewpoint :)
Why is the right wing on ascend?
Could it be that the "left" divorces itself from the mainstraem concers and takes up fringe issues as cause celebre just to draw attention to itself; prime example in Pakistan would be to take up and promote transgender and assert "right" to public inebriation at the expense of other life and death issues of ordinary citizens? It's quite arrogant and presumptuous of the "left" to demand and expect to be recognized as purveyor of the attributes it does possess.
