Popular Culture, Social Media, and the Politics of Identity
Popular Culture, Social Media, and the Politics of Identity advances a novel methodological approach – pop culture as political object – to capture the centrality of popular culture as an object of a broad range of political contests and debates that constitute pop culture artefacts by generating and informing specific meanings and understandings of them. It is no longer novel to claim that popular culture matters to world politics. The literature on Popular Culture and World Politics (PCWP) has demonstrated the cultural basis of political action and meaning-making. However, this book argues that in doing so, the PCWP literature has focused primarily on the traditionally narrow range of ...

Costa Rica
The fiscal rule that came into force in 2020 has bolstered fiscal discipline and served Costa Rica well. The rule sets ceilings on nominal expenditure growth for current and total expenditures linked to past nominal GDP growth and debt levels. The rule—explicitly identified in the Law 9635—is transparent, relatively simple, and allows flexibility in crises through an escape clause. The rule has been instrumental in the policy framework. It not only guides the fiscal policy in the budget, but also coalesces public opinion on the need for fiscal discipline. Along with other fiscal reforms, the government commitment to the fiscal rule has been instrumental to fiscal adjustment in 2021-22.
