ABSTRACT This study examines migration and the rise of populist and extreme nationalist in Europe. The study seeks to undertake an assessment of the predominance of migration to European countries and to determine how migration has affected populism and extremist nationalism. The study further aims at determining the elements that gives rise to migration in Europe and examining how migrants are treated in some European countries. It is expected that the study will be of enormous advantage to individuals who are involved in conducting research on the subject matter of this study and who aims to obtain additional knowledge on the area of focus of this study and can as well be adopted by individuals who are non researchers to make more on their future research investigation. It is also expected that the study contributes to the advancement of knowledge and might function as a guide for many other research investigations. Qualitative method was adopted in this study and content analysis technique was also adopted in its procedure. It has been established that European citizens are of the concern that immigration is the major reason that leads to the rise of the far right populists. The study has also proven that the prowess of nationalism in any society can therefore be determined through a number of indicators, which include structural factors, exclusionary citizenship, socio-economic marginalization, and lots more virulent and instant factors including media discussions, support for nationalist politics and violence against particular groups. It is recommended that transnational cooperation needs to take precedence in creating good warning systems to predict as well as anticipate potential resettlement streams in order for the countries to be better equipped. In order to provide early warning of the resettlement, information and intellectual prowess must be shared between and among nations as well as organizations. This includes a thorough knowledge of the various factors that can lead to movement of people, including violent confrontations, financial and ecological catastrophes, and expatriate populations.
