A Pandemic of Populists
Explores the rise of populism in power, focusing on its causes, characteristics, impact on democracy, and how to fight back.
Right-Wing Populism in Latin America and Beyond
With contributions from 22 scholars and empirical material from 29 countries within and beyond Latin America, this book identifies subtypes of populism to further understand right-wing populist movements, parties, leaders, and governments. It seeks to examine whether the term populism continues to have any validity and what relationship(s) it has to democracy. Part 1 is an exploration of populism as an analytical concept. It asks how populism can and should be defined; whether populism can be broken down into subtypes; and whether the use of the term within and beyond Latin America in recent scholarship has been consistent. Part 2 focuses on political economy, and specifically whether politi...
Citizens and the European Polity
Citizens and the European Polity reviews empirical data covering nearly forty years in the development of the Union and shows how comparable challenges in the past shaped public opinion towards integration, and via that, the process of integration itself.
Regressive Movements in Times of Emergency
Since the very beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, with mass media and social media playing a key role, anti-vax protests have received sustained attention. The first comments often pointed at the heterogeneity of the events, whose participants seemed to belong to different milieus, from the far right to exoteric groups that opposed mainstream medicine, suggesting alternative ones. In reality, in their forms and claims, these protests developed as a regressive response to the health crisis. Conspiracist beliefs--from the politicized QAnon and Great Replacement conspiracies widespread on the far right to the Chemic Trails and 5G ones present in an exoteric milieu that promoted alternative hea...
European Identity Revisited
It has been argued that the emergence of a European collective identity would help overcome growing disparity caused by the increasing diversity of today’s European Union, with 28 member states and more than 500 million people. Research on European integration is facing the pressing question of what holds ‘Europe’ together in times of crisis, growing distributional conflict and instability in its neighbourhood. This book departs from the ideas of group cohesion in the EU, and reflects on the newest dynamics and practices of European identity. Whilst applying innovative qualitative, quantitative and experimental research methods and an interdisciplinary approach, this volume looks at a ...

Bolsonarismo
Bolsonarismo: The Global Origins and Future of Brazil’s Far Right documents the rise of the far-right alliance that emerged in Brazil in 2020 around the figure of former president Jair Bolsonaro. Unlike a cohesive organization with uniform practices, Bolsonarismo is marked by fragmentation and a broad variety of ideologies. Fernando Brancoli delves deeply into how Bolsonarismo has developed a specific political orientation through its partnerships with other groups, practices, and subjectivities within Brazil, as well as internationally. Through interviews, archival research, and newly available public documents, this book presents a comprehensive and compelling portrait of the neo-evangel...
Responsabilidade civil e comunicação
As IV Jornadas Luso-Brasileiras de Responsabilidade Civil convidaram-nos a refletir sobre a responsabilidade civil no quadro dos novos desafios que a comunicação e a informação comunicam. O tema, dogmaticamente muito rico, não poderia ter sido mais apropriado. Tendo sido escolhido pela Comissão Científica das ditas Jornadas num momento em que ainda se desconheciam os contornos da crise pandémica que o mundo viria a enfrentar, ele veio a revelar-se quase profético, tantos os problemas que a aceleração da digitalização do mundo, entretanto vivenciada, potenciou. Num formato adaptado aos novos desafios, todo ele realizado em ambiente digital, as IV Jornadas foram palco para profíc...
