Does the Iron Curtain Still Exist? the Convergence in Electoral Volatility between Eastern and Western Europe
No full textThe literature on party system change and electoral volatility in post-communist Europe tends to make a clear-cut distinction between Central and Eastern European (CEE) party systems and Western European (WE) ones. The former are unstable and unpredictable and electoral volatility is driven by the continuous emergence of new political parties. Conversely, electoral stability is the rule in the latter, and volatility is associated with electoral shifts among established parties. This conventional wisdom suffers from three potential sources of bias: case selection, time coverage and method. By correcting these biases, this article investigates whether the traditional division between CEE and WE party systems has been levelled as regards volatility. To do so, it presents evidence based on an original data set of electoral volatility and its internal components covering 31 WE and CEE party systems since 1990. It finds that a process of asymmetric convergence in the levels of electoral volatility is taking place between the two regions, with Western Europe approaching Central and Eastern Europe with increasing electoral instability
Navigating Complexity: Continuity and Change in European Governance, 2023/2024
Full text linkThis article was crafted shortly after a critical turning point,
that is the institutional and political renewal process that began on 6–9 June 2024. During this period, nearly 400 million European citizens were entitled to elect the 720 Members of the 10th European Parliament (EP) Legislature. In the following weeks, crucial decisions were made regarding the EU’s top leadership positions. We argue that the 2024 renewal process was unusual, as it involved more political continuity than change, with the explicit aim of securing the survival of the European project amidst a proliferation of challenges. In this sense, it can be viewed as an unusual phase of (conservative) transition that managed to prevent radical alterations in the evolution of the EU’s trajectory by explicitly investing in continuity in leaders and dossiers. We identify five main continuities in both the degree and type of response from EU citizens to the challenge of institutional renewal (e.g., turnout and electoral results) and the outcomes (e.g., group formation, leadership positions and agenda-setting)

Un polo solo. Le elezioni politiche del 2022
No full textIl capitolo analizza il successo di FdI combinando fattori di medio, breve e lungo periodo, come le radici identitarie che affondano nelle esperienze dei partiti predecessori di FdI, cioè il Movimento Sociale Italiano (Msi) e An. Pur essendo uno dei presidenti del consiglio più giovani, Meloni ha oltre trent’anni di carriera politica alle spalle, tutti vissuti in questi tre partiti. Il suo attivismo politico culturale è stato decisivo nella costruzione della attuale coalizione dominante del partito, che si riconosce, con pochissime eccezioni, nelle radici identitarie della destra (post)missina. Questi elementi di coesione hanno permesso al partito di superare le prime difficili fasi. Dal punto di vista teorico, il capitolo si colloca in continuità con il filone consolidato di analisi dei partiti che vede nell’origine di un progetto politico la pietra angolare che può spiegare, a seconda della sua consistenza, composizione, diffusione o solidità, la performance elettorale, gli orientamenti dei leader fondatori, le caratteristiche dell’infrastruttura organizzativa e l’eventuale processo di istituzionalizzazione. Il capitolo analizza quindi la natura e le dinamiche del successo di FdI nel 2022, focalizzandosi poi nel dettaglio sull’identikit degli elettori
Party digitalization and members’ empowerment: A comparison of four Italian parties
Full text linkThe digitalization of political parties has often been approached from the
perspective of political parties. Previous studies discuss the potential impact
of technology on empowerment, but the users’ attitudes to this are largely
unknown. To address this gap in the literature, our article analyses how party
members view the empowerment potential of digital tools in their party. We
use data from semi-structured interviews conducted in November and
December 2023 with members of four Italian political parties: Brothers of Italy,
Democratic Party, Five Star Movement, and Forza Italia. Employing an inductive
approach, the coding process was data-driven, and identified four forms of
empowerment. The analysis revealed significant, and in some cases counterintuitive, similarities and differences between the parties examined
Populism and Immigration: (Re)Inventing Identities Through Language
No full textPopulism is one of the hottest topics of the moment and immigration is a fundamental lens for understanding its success, although not the only one. Starting from this assumption, this chapter aims to specify how language can be used as a strategic resource to empower populist platforms. The analysis contributes to the existing analysis by clarifying that language is intrinsically evaluative: the choice of the use of words and the linguistic strategies implemented by any political actor cannot be seen as neutral. Hence, we argue that (radical right) populists do not make a pathological use of language per se. The populist linguistic strategies belong to a physiological dimension, in the sense that PRRPs masterly exploit the potentialities inherent in language. In brief, we connect to Mudde’s convincing argumentation concerning the need to understand contemporary populist radical right not as a normal pathology but as a pathological normalcy (2010) and consider that populist radical right parties’ relation to language is better perceived as a pathological physiology, in the sense that the content might be at odds with the politically correct, but even the politically correct is not neutral

Soare (Sorina), Les partis politiques roumains après 1989
Full text linkL'ouvrage de Sorina Soare comble un véritable manque dans la littérature spécialisée, puisque la question des partis politiques en Roumanie n'a pas encore été explorée dans le monde universitaire francophone, moins porté sur ces problématiques que son homologue anglo-saxon. De même, la production roumaine en sciences sociales s'est davantage focalisée sur la transition, pour ne s'intéresser au système partisan que dans les années 2000. Le livre aborde les partis politiques en tant qu'entités ..
