European culture, history, and heritage as political tools in the rhetoric of the Finns Party
2019
Various studies have indicated how notions and (mis)interpretations of national history, heritage, and culture are utilized by diverse populist and extremist political parties in Europe. However, scholars have less explored how the idea of a common European history, heritage, and culture are used by these parties to justify their xenophobic, anti-immigration, anti-globalization, and monoculturalist political attitudes and the defense of ‘us’. This chapter focuses on this question by examining the political rhetoric of the Finns Party, the core populist party in Finland. The data consists of selected texts discussing broadly the topics of the EU, Europe, nation, identity, and/or culture, pub…
The Philippines 2017 : Duterte-led Authoritarian Populism and Its Liberal-Democratic Roots
2017
Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte led a phenomenal campaign to win the 2016 national election. During his first two years in power Duterte has become the protagonist and exemplar of a key new development – the social formation of a regime of authoritarian populism. Based on an analysis of news reports, public debates, survey results, and official policy documents from 2017, the article examines various features of this emergent regime and then illuminates the historical-institutional mechanisms that brought it about. The inquiry is predicated on an understanding that the old EDSA Republic’s liberal-democratic regime has been marked by intractable socio-economic crises since its installat…

Trust in the European Union: What Is It and How Does It Matter?
2018
Bakardijeva Engelbrekt, Bremberg, Michalski, and Oxelheim introduce the concept of trust in the European Union by pointing out its elusive character comprising both interpersonal relations and attitudes towards organizations and broad-based institutions in society. In the early days of integration, trust was primarily connected to the European security community. Then, trust was present mainly among political, economic, and bureaucratic elites while public confidence in European integration took a vaguer form. Today, trust in the EU is challenged by numerous developments, ranging from the deteriorating internal and external security situation and terrorism to rising populism and anti-establ…
Populismin väkevöityminen
2020
Artikkelissa tarkastellaan populismin ideologista väkevöitymistä populistisen radikaalioikeiston herättämänä kysymyksenä. Ernesto Laclaun käsittein kuvataan aluksi argumentaatioltaan heikoksi mainitun populistisen retoriikan liikettä muodostavaa voimaa. Laclaun kuvaamat ”tyhjät” ja ”kelluvat” merkitsijät voivat panostua myös ideologisesti liikkeen luonnetta muuttavalla tavalla. Populismin ytimeltään heikko ideologisuus altistaa uusiin ideologisiin linkityksiin ja panosten väkevöitymiseen sen omassa retoriikassa. Siten ideologiaa ei ymmärretä vain populismia jälkikäteen vahvistavaksi aatteeksi, vaan sen merkitsijöitä muuttavaksi dynaamiseksi mahdollisuudeksi. ”Tyhjän merkitsijän” käsitteen k…
The system of government and the opposition in Poland after the 2015 parliamentary elections
2021
The category of the system of government in Poland requires reference to ‘the governance style’ of the right, and to the tendency that has appeared in international politics in recent years to call it populist nationalism. The objective of this paper is to show that in the case of Poland after 2015, the thesis of the retreat of democracy has no factual grounds, and it can be countered through the use of evidence. The system of government in Poland after the Law and Justice party came to power cannot be described as a contradiction to democracy. Citizens are not being manipulated and deceived. They are aware of the content of decisions made by the executive branch. The opposition is able to …
El populismo penal en Colombia: propuesta para un debate inconcluso
2020
El presente documento argumenta que el populismo penal ha sido interpretado y caracterizado de diversas maneras, pero que, en realidad, no se han planteado propuestas para establecer un “umbral” que permita definir cuándo se trata de una reforma penal legítima y necesaria, y cuándo estamos ante una populista o reaccionaria. Este trabajo propone un modelo aplicado a reformas penales que se podrían considerar populistas, y así, ofrecer un test que permita dar un paso hacia la teoría del populismo penal.
