The aim of this report is to present an instrument for monitoring rightwing extremism, xenophobia and misanthropy in the attitudes of the Swiss population that can be implemented in future surveys on attitudes and used to develop trends. We developed and tested a national survey strategy that is compatible with international surveys and adapted to the Swiss context. Analytically, we have developed a relatively open concept, integrating contrasting points of view. We have worked on contextual variables, variables defining values and variables oriented onto the consequences of opinions. Methodologically, we have taken three steps. We first developed and tested questions in focus groups, then we ran the questionnaire on a small sample, and finally we submitted the questionnaire to a representative sample and analysed the results.
