Résumé : Les années récentes ont été marquées par une croissance de l'orientation populiste. Dans cet article, nous examinons les relations entre le populisme et le numérique en tenant compte de la surprenante simultanéité du succès populiste et de la croissance de l'importance des médias numériques. Le populisme peut être compris comme une idéologie dont la structure est plus importante que son sens. Les principaux composants du populisme sont des signifiants vides qui, parce qu'ils n'ont pas de contenu intrinsèque, sont continuellement resignifiés avec de l'engagement affectif/émotionnel. C'est par leur élasticité qu'ils peuvent s'associer librement et arbitrer entre eux dans des structures qui peuvent être adaptées aux environnements divers, transgresser des domaines et des limites géographiques. Ces structures « baladeuses » sont plus facilement transportées dans le monde numérique, monde de la libre circulation tant des idées que des bulles informatiques. Nous analyserons le numérique comme l'outil des populistes, comme l'environnement des populismes et finalement comme un composant idéologique en lui-même ou comme un élément de l'autocréation des populistes. Nous examinerons enfin la nature complexe des relations entre le numérique et le populisme, dans laquelle le numérique peut aussi bien renforcer qu'affaiblir le populisme, le servir et le compromettre.

Introduction : Pourrait-on faire une sociologie de l'opinion sans les enquetes d'opinion et les sondages ? Pourrait-on faire une sociologie de la reception des medias sans les mesures d'audience ? Pourrait-on faire une sociologie des reputations sans les dispositifs d'opinion mining, de sentiment analysis (analyse de tonalite), ou de e-reputation qui emergent a foison depuis quelques annees ? Nous considerons qu'il est possible de ne pas toujours suivre ce formatage par les dispositifs operationnels, pour penser l'opinion, l'audience ou la reputation et nos travaux precedents l'ont amplement montre sur tous ces sujets, dans la lignee de Tarde (Boullier, 2004). Cependant, la puissance performative des dispositifs de sondages, des mesures d'audience et de e-reputation est telle qu'il est impossible de les ignorer ou de se contenter de les critiquer sommairement, comme ce fut souvent le cas pour les sondages ou les mesures d'audience. Nous no...

Este trabajo tiene como objetivo exponer el vínculo necesario entre la ética y el espacio. La idea básica es que no hay ética sin agente moral ni tampoco una agencia de este tipo sin un espacio por el que la acción pueda realizarse y aceptarse, por lo que las acciones propiamente humanas y lo espacial en tanto continente de estas acciones mantienen una correlación ontológica que merece una consideración crítica. Para ello, expongo cuatro tesis ampliamente aceptadas en la filosofía moral contemporánea y añado una quinta, la de este vínculo, como una tesis que articula las precedentes en aras del debate ético y frente al supuesto metafísico de una subjetividad abstracta como condición necesaria de la filosofía moral. Esto me lleva a razonar de acuerdo con corolarios tales como que la conciencia de este vínculo permite profundizar en la relación que hay entre las éticas clásicas y las modernas más allá de los discursos reaccionarios o progresistas al uso y que repensar el espacio para la ética nos permite traer a colación la filosofía práctica de Aristóteles en una discusión actual y en oposición a las propuestas kantianas y utilitaristas. Lo que estas tienen de presuntamente superior se proyecta en ausencia de una noción de espacio clave en la ética clásica. Este trabajo, pues, es una crítica a las éticas modernas desde la modernidad y para la ética.

A 4 de novembro de 2024, a revista Trabalhos de Antropologia e Etnologia publicou no seu n.º 64 o meu artigo sobre a Vilafrancada. Uma versão anterior deste artigo tinha sido já publicitada neste local. Esta é a sua forma revista e final.
Resumo: O golpe ou pronunciamento militar que pôs fim à vigência da primeira Constituição liberal em Portugal e que ficou conhecido como Vilafrancada foi e continua a ser frequentemente qualificado como um "golpe miguelista" ou como a mera imposição do regresso ao absolutismo. Estas asserções simplificam ao extremo os conflitos da época, como se apenas estivessem presentes dois grupos e uma oposição em dois termos: liberal e absolutista. Procuro neste artigo uma visão alternativa e a contextualização do evento no ciclo aberto pela revolução e nos condicionamentos da política peninsular e europeia.

El artículo examina los feminismos en movimiento en el Estado español reteniendo que se inscriben en un contexto marcado por treinta años de Planes de Igualdad y por leyes recientemente promulgadas -de violencia de género, de matrimonio de personas del mismo sexo, de salud sexual y reproductiva, de identidad de género-, producto de las luchas feministas y las de los colectivos gays, lesbianos, transexuales y bisexuales. Esa aproximación permite bosquejar los desacuerdos entre feministas "institucionales", "nacionalistas", "otras", "queer", "postfeministas", "transfeministas", "FEMEN" (la lista no es exhaustiva); y sirve para pensar si es posible re-ampliar, desde posturas feministas a veces divergentes, el espacio de lo político. Feminismos en movimiento, espacio de lo político, sujeto político, controversias feministas, micro-grupos, desacuerdos.

This study seeks to understand the political discourse of Javier Milei and to determine
which concept of populism best captures his approach. Although perceived by many as a populist,
Milei is unusual in that he sees himself as a liberal libertarian and defender of the West against
collectivist policies. To this end, this study analyzes selected speeches by Milei from three different
periods during and after the 2024 presidential election campaign and applies a deductive coding
scheme designed to identify ideational populism, populist discursive framing, populism as strategy,
and populism as crisis performance. The analysis confirms that Milei is at best a partial populist, as
he fails to define the core populist concept of “the people”. It concludes that the concept of crisis
performance emerges as the most apt theoretical framework to classify Milei’s type of populism. By
rhetorically transforming the crisis not only into an existential economic issue but also into a moral
tale of corruption and failure at the highest levels, he can appeal for radical change and offer himself
as the national political savior. Milei’s discourse also illustrates that, unlike ideological populism
or discursive populist framing, in the performative turn, the victims of the crisis, the people, often
remain a vague signifier defined by their suffering at the hands of elites.

2024, Italian Political Science Review

After 78 years of democracy, Italy continues to grapple with its recent past in the political, social, and cultural spheres. Its experience of fascism under Mussolini, its dual participation in the Second World War, and the continuous and still existent connections between the ideological factions of the 1930s-1940s and now render the country a rich case for the study of public history and memory. The specificity of these characteristics has often made Italian history and memory look like an outlier, shaped by circumstances difficult to compare with those of other countries'. This paper argues that contemporary Italian memory politics are in reality a valuable source of information about the kind of mnemonic discourses that may arise in other (Western) European countries, given the increasingly polarised and populist European landscape. Our study of discourses put forwarded by the post-fascist party Fratelli d'Italia reveals a set of mnemonic tools with which they successfully banalise fascism and chip at Italian public discourse slowly but surely. The comparison between this discourse and that of VOX and AfD in Spain and Germany, respectively, shows that these tools, ranging from nativism to policy (de)legitimation linked to fascist imagery, has started to transfer to other countries' political strategies.

This article intends to focus on some of the possibilities for analysis and reflection that emerge from the reading of I, Pierre Rivière, having slaughtered my mother, my sister, my brother: a 1973 text, edited by Foucault, which develops from the recognition of the potency inherent in the act of speech by the speechless. Pierre Rivière is in fact considered the one who, through but also beyond his terrible deed, has the (entirely political)ability to take the risk of “challenging power.” It is precisely by means of this act that he undertakes a process of desubjection and subjectivation, imposing disruptive and scandalous truths and discourses against other truths and discourses recognized as dominant and more authoritative. Pierre Rivière's Memoir cannot therefore be in-vestigated as a confession; rather, it has to do with parrhēsia, anticipating many of the Foucauldian reflections on the subject, which would not be developed until several years later. Moreover, it does not really concern an isolated individual. The subject Rivière speaks of is one who not only rises up for his own part but also paves the way for the many without a part, thus outlining the possibilities of constructing a collective “we” that aims to conquer a political space. From here the question arises: “Who, in our present, might the Pierre Rivières be?” A question that has nothing to do with the tragic facts of the parricidebut which allows us to explore what Pierre Rivière ena-bles us to think and say today.

Although knowledge about the role of space in the field of social movement studies is already well established, it is rarely discussed within the framework of urban spatial design (with some important exceptions). We consider not only how political power is related to architectural design in urban environments but also how it is performed (and contested) during protests within these spaces. We argue that urban spatial planning should address the dual nature of street demonstrations. Public assemblies are seen as symbols of democracy, but they are also disruptive and may turn into riots. This tension is evident along two design lines: facilitating and obstructing street demonstrations in a built-up urban environment. In our essay, we show that street protests are an immanent part of neoliberal democracy, and that cities cannot avoid street demonstrations or simply exclude them in the design process.

El presente artículo se orienta a dilucidar el problema de la materialización del espacio político en un inmueble construido durante el periodo colonial y que hasta el presente se mantiene como sede de Gobierno. Este es el caso de uno de los edificios más representativos del centro histórico de Santiago de Chile: el Palacio de La Moneda. Construido entre 1784 y 1805 con tecnología representativa de la época (albañilería de ladrillo sin refuerzos), el inmueble albergó en sus inicios a la Real Casa de Moneda, concentrando en su interior el poder económico. Tras la independencia y entrado el siglo XIX, se convierte en sede de Gobierno, sumando esta vez el poder político de la época. Bajo esta perspectiva, se presenta una lectura del espacio político en torno a este importante edificio teniendo en cuenta su historia, construcción y arquitectura.

Al-Tahrir Square is the most effective Square in Baghdad, has many cultural and urban landmarks, and the most famous is the Freedom Memorial. As a valuable public space, this Square has faced urban transformation and dilution of social identity due to the collective memory and the built environment changing its meaning. This research aims at uncovering recent urban memory and reproducing collective memory in urban public spaces. Qualitative research was applied through a field study and interviews with 40 participants aged 18 and 75. Most of the people we interviewed thought that their part in the research helped them to understand how urban memory works now. This study shows that events and political activities created the memory of the place in the urban public space under study and that the place's transformation into a place of attraction and conflict between the forces of its original use led to the creation of a kind of new memory place. Keywords: urban memory, recasting m...

Resumen El presente ensayo explora el léxico del llamado giro espacial en la Teoría política contemporánea y focaliza sobre una definición topológica del poder. El texto plantea una serie de preguntas que articulan la revisión del corpus teórico de dicha perspectiva: ¿Cómo abordar el tema de la unidad en condiciones de complejidad/multiplicidad? ¿Cómo se ejerce el poder en una sociedad que carece de un centro estructurador? ¿Qué conceptos pueden ayudarnos a hacer teóricamente visible el impacto de la singularidad política? El objetivo de esta exploración no es responder a plenitud estas preguntas sino mostrar en qué medida esta plataforma conceptual permite formularlas, dándoles un sentido particular y una posible dirección de respuesta.

The paper presents a study of the party positions in the Italian Parliament based on an inductive approach to the parliamentary debate and votes of investiture on the two governments led by G. Conte (2018-2020). Through a content analysis of the parliamentary debate on the votes of investiture of these two governments, a survey is provided of the political themes tackled by the government incumbents and by the main Italian parliamentary groups. The scope of the research is to assess the alignments of the Italian parties after the decline of the traditional left-to-right cleavage and the rise of the populist trend. Firstly, the multidimensional character of the space of competition is highlighted. The findings show, secondly, that the party alignments are affected by the interplay of the Supranational Dimension (European integration) and of the populist "mood", on one hand, with the State capacity to provide services and guarantee rights, on the other. Finally, it is argued that the emergence of a multi-polar pattern of competition, and the positioning of populist parties in the alignments have hindered the reduction of the polarization of the Italian party system.

Using the cases of coups d'état in Africa in the period 2000-2022, it is argued that in democratic regimes the coup is connected to the conditions of weak political institutionalisation and of centralisation of executive power. Some indicators of the institutionalisation of the political process (i.e. election regularity and relatively significant levels of government turnover) are associated with the unlikelihood of a coup or in any case with its probable failure. Conversely, where the political process is poorly institutionalised and the system features a high level of centralisation of executive power (i.e. "strong" presidents), coups d'état are more frequent and successful. In the case of authoritarianisms, some "factors of the regime" (a party, a closed bureaucracy, the military body or the apparatus of violence), in various combinations in concrete cases, can succeed in re-stabilising the political regime and prevent the coup or reduce its success rate. Coups d'état as "critical junctures" in democracy have effective consequences only in conditions of low institutionalisation of the regime and/or of high centralisation of the executive powers.

This article reexamines the race-populism nexus. It asks: Does populist political construction of the figure of 'the people' necessarily involve processes of racial othering? We answer this question by revisiting three emblematic cases of populism. Each historical case illustrates a basic type of identity formation that can have an i) exclusionary, ii) ambivalent or iii) positive impact on racial justice. The first case is Thatcherism, whose 'authoritarian populism' feeds on and reinforces anti-Black racial prejudice. The second is Peronism, which has an ambivalent relationship with race that promises to shed important new light on this classic case of populism. The third case is that of the American Populists, whose pioneering experiments in interracial politics remain an enduring illustration of populism's progressive potential. In each case, we focus on a key document from that political regime/movement: the Conservative Manifesto of 1979, the Peronist Constitution of 1949, and the Omaha Platform of 1892. The article concludes that populism, as a logic of action, acts as a catalyst that intensifies whatever specific content is mobilised-racist and anti-racist content alike.

À memória dos meus Pais e da minha irmã Conchita AGRADECIMENTOS A ideia de realizar este trabalho parte da redescoberta, há cerca de sete anos, de um arquivo familiar dos antepassados de minha mãe, Maria Helena Froes Arantes Lobato de Azevedo, falecida em 2008, que passaram para a guarda de meu pai, Luís Dias da Costa. O meu pai tentou reconhecer e reorganizar os documentos que compunham o referido acervo, porém a tarefa era demasiado difícil e penosa, para uma pessoa que já ultrapassara os 90 anos de idade. Possuindo uma enorme curiosidade sobre o arquivo, quando tive possibilidade, abracei com gosto o seu estudo e organização, solicitando ajuda à Universidade NOVA/FCSH, na pessoa da Professora Doutora Lurdes Rosa. Dadas as circunstâncias do meu percurso académico e profissional ter sido na área de Economia, mais de 35 anos, seria de todo conveniente adquirir formação em História, por isso, equacionou-se a realização do mestrado na vertente da história moderna, pelas próprias características do acervo, que iniciei em setembro de 2018 e eis-me agora no final da etapa. O meu primeiro agradecimento vai para os meus orientadores, Professor Doutor Jorge Miguel Pedreira e Professora Doutora Maria de Lurdes Rosa, pelos ensinamentos, a compreensão, a confiança, a prontidão e a motivação com que me brindaram, desde o primeiro dia, e pela orientação, cuidadosa e sempre presente, com que me conduziram pelas teorias da história moderna e da arquivística para levar a bom porto esta dissertação. Ao Daniel Estudante Protásio, um investigador da vida e obra do 2º visconde de Santarém, estou imensamente grata por toda a informação que me proporcionou sobre os Sousa Lobato, protagonistas da presente tese, contemporâneos e muito próximos da família dos viscondes de Santarém.

We are currently in the middle of multiple global crises that leave us with a different outlook than the optimism that characterized the decades of the 1990s and early 2000s. The belief in continuous global democratic and developmental progress has been replaced by concerns for irreversible climate change, global geopolitical instability, democratic decline, new manifestations of authoritarian populism, and a reversal of developmental gains in human rights, health, education, and welfare (CIVICUS, 2021;

Developing countries increasingly face the challenge of devising sound strategies for assisting the rural poor at local levels. Development experience in the Third World has repeatedly shown the limitations of central government efforts to promote effective rural development (Korten, 1980; Chambers, 1983; Uphoff and Esman, 1983). This trend is becoming clearer with the worldwide fiscal crisis, the need for increased human resource development (HRD) within government agencies, and the need to improve the economic livelihood, health, nutritional status, and overall well-being of the rural poor.

Supplemental Material, PPQ702058_ed_appendix_(1) for Political conflict in Bismarck's Germany: An analysis of parliamentary voting, 1867–1890 by Frank M. Häge in Party Politics

2023, Party Politics

Imperial Germany is a prominent historical case in the study of Western Europe’s political development. This article investigates the number and content of political conflict dimensions from the foundation of the modern German state in 1867 to the end of Bismarck’s reign as Chancellor in 1890. Methodologically, it applies dimension-reducing statistical methods to a novel data set of content-coded parliamentary roll call votes. The analysis suggests that the emergence of the Catholic Centre Party in 1871 permanently transformed the conflict space from a single liberal-conservative divide to a two-dimensional space that distinguished positions on socio-economic issues and regime matters, respectively. The fact that positions on redistributive and regime issues were not aligned implies that theories stressing economic inequality as a driver for regime change are of limited applicability. Instead, the case of Imperial Germany highlights the importance of cross-cutting non-economic socie...

O processo contemporâneo de prática artística suscita questões que dizem respeito ao artista, ao seu contexto político-social e a todos os outros fatores que, combinados, compõem sua maneira de posicionar-se no mundo. O político norteia as escolhas estéticas e, consequentemente, as posturas éticas, e por isso é necessário que se reflita sobre como a relação entre artistas envolvidos no desenvolvimento de uma prática artística pode transformar esse espaço de trabalho em um espaço político. Para isso, apresenta-se o conceito de política, as conexões entre subjetividade, singularidade, intersubjetividade e afeto e as discussões entre consenso e dissenso, as quais atravessam essas relações, no intuito de compreender o que potencializa esse espaço como político.

This paper proposes an alternative reading of the politics of the 2017 French presidential election, using an unstudied source of information on voters' preferences: experimental data on approval voting. We provide a new narrative of the election process and outcome. The principal approach for understanding the political context has for many decades been a distinction between left and right-wing political forces. We introduce a method for generating an endogenous political axis, and construct three indices so that we might understand how and why the conventional approach has become progressively irrelevant. We find no gender effect, but instead an age effect. Voters, especially those who belong to generations at the beginning or the end of their working life, use their vote in national elections to support radical change; and the younger the voters, the less they conform to a left-right axis. However, this desire for change does not represent a rejection of existing parties, as the official results would suggest. Rather, the approval results suggest an erosion in the voters' minds of barriers between distinct political camps, and between traditional and populist parties.

Party system change has long been one of the most studied topics within the comparative politics literature. Since the seminal work of Sartori (1976, p. 44), a party system has been conceptualised as 'the system of interactions resulting from interparty competition'. According to this definition, party systems can be distinguished by looking at specific features of the relationships between political parties and at the pattern of party competition. These features include the number of relevant parties, parties' relative size and strength, the key policy dimensions shaping the space of political competition, the matrix of distances between parties' ideal positions, the patterns of government formation, and parties' ability to cooperate with each other after elections (Wolinetz 2006). In an attempt to capture significant differences among the most stable liberal democracies, comparative scholars have built classifications and typologies of party systems focusing on one or more of the relational features described above: counting the number of relevant parties (Duverger 1954); combining the number of parties with information about their relative size and strength (Blondel 1968; Siaroff 2000); looking at patterns of government formation (Dahl 1966; Rokkan 1970; Mair 1996, 2002); or examining both the number of parties and their ideological polarisation (Sartori 1976). However, while these criteria have proven useful in categorising party systems 'into distinct classes or types, such as two-party systems, systems of moderate pluralism, multiparty systems, or whatever' (Mair 2006, p. 63), they are quite ineffective in capturing party system change over time. Only on rare occasions (e.g. Italy after 1993) have changes in the defining features of party systems led to a

2023, "MAIS INFLUENTES QUE MUITOS MINISTROS": UMA FAMÍLIA DE CORTESÃOS NA VIRAGEM PARA O SÉCULO XIX -OS SOUSA LOBATO

In this thesis we aim to study the social evolution and political influence of the Sousa Lobato family, from the last quarter of the 18th century to the middle of the 19th century, reporting on their experience within the monarchical power as nobility of the Court.
This study proposal is due to the Sousa Lobato family archive discovered about seven years ago. The archive is made up of hundreds of documents produced and accumulated by this family, from the last quarter of the 18th century until the beginning of the 20th century and is essentially composed of official documents of royal mercy - royal license, letters, ordinances and decrees - referring to nomination to palatine posts,
the assignment of honorary qualifications in Militar and Religious Orders, the granting of rights (landlords, agricultural land) and the exercise of functions in the official institutions of the kingdom - customs, ombudsman of Comarcas - and also documentary processes related to properties granted and some epistolary correspondence.
We will describe the family tree presenting the distinctions and privileges
granted to the main members of the family - three of its members rose to the title - and disclosing how they positioned in the society of the Ancient Regime, in the advent of Liberalism and in conflict between Liberals and Absolutists.

This essay juxtaposes the need to rebuff the erection of walls along with euphemisms about border security, root and branch with the need to call for a defense of borders in the name of the self-determination of collectivities against imperialism, either in the name of human rights or responsibility to protect. In doing so, it calls for retrieving notions of bounded collective life and the exercise of political responsibility by uncompromisingly challenging the racialization and classing of borders as well as resisting that boundary-defying order that is the United States and the capitalist interstate system over which it presides.

Resumo. Nenhuma obra historiográfica terá sido tão marcante na construção da história do Portugal oitocentista, e em particular do regime de D. Miguel, como o Portugal Contemporâneo de Oliveira Martins. Sobre ela produziram-se as mais desencontradas apreciações, não só nos anos que se seguiram à sua publicação (1881), mas ao longo do século XX. Entre outros problemas, estava em causa a avaliação histórica do miguelismo e da revolução liberal de 1834, antecedentes sem os quais era impossível compreender a sociedade portuguesa no tempo da Monarquia Constitucional. Numa época dominada pela narrativa liberal acerca do legitimismo miguelista (a versão herdada dos vencedores da Guerra Civil de 1832-34), Oliveira Martins distanciou-se claramente do cânone liberal. Em que sentidos? Que significado tem o retrato que deixou de D. Miguel e do miguelismo? Como foi recebido Portugal Contemporâneo pela crítica? Pretende-se caracterizar a sua narrativa historiográfica e estudar as diversas linhas da sua receção, inscrevendo-as na batalha de memórias que se foi desenvolvendo acerca do regime de D. Miguel e do liberalismo. Palavras-chave. D. Miguel, miguelismo, liberalismo, historiografia.

Development of a country is a significant marker of the successful planning and implementation of policies by the government. It also shows the government’s ability to manage the country’s resource and wealth efficiently and effectively. The study on development has shown that the underlying perspectives that dominate the discussions on economics also determine the meaning and indicators for development. This article discusses the two central actors in development by looking at the relationship between state and NGOs in a Muslim majority society i.e. Malaysia. It looks at the pattern of the relationship through the political space allowed for NGOs to operate. An analysis on this suggests that political orientation of the NGOs and importance of state political survival shape the pattern of state-NGO relationship especially during the era of the government under Barisan Nasional (BN). This article argues that despite the legalistic and restrictive structure imposed on NGOs to mobilise...

The urgency of the issue is related to changes in the Ukrainian banks’ business environment, taking into account the impact of domestic and global financial instability and the implementation of the regulatory framework for banking regulation of the National Bank of Ukraine in accordance with the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision recommendations. The main goal of this research is to analyze the degree of implementation and compliance with the Basel III regulations in Ukrainian banking system. To carry out the research, regulatory and legislative documents of the National Bank of Ukraine, the Basel Accords, statistic data of the Ukrainian banks and the National Bank of Ukraine were used. For this purpose, the analysis of main indicators of Ukrainian banks’ financial stability within the period of 2014–2017 is made. Thus, post-crisis regulatory changes have aimed at restoring bank stability. The results seem to suggest that bank regulatory changes may be repressive, for instance,...
