Cultures Of Rioting And Anti-Systemic Movements In Southern Europe, Katia Andronikidou, Iosif Kovras

Iosif Kovras

The article investigates why, despite similar background conditions, Greece has been the site of frequent, highly visible, fringe, anti-system politics and street riots, while similar phenomena are rare in Spain. Although the article’s focal point is the eruption of the December 2008 riots in Athens, it sheds light on the two countries’ diverse social reactions to the sovereign debt crisis. Deploying the tool of media framing, it argues that historical legacies and political cultures matter. In the Greek case, the transition to democracy shaped a political ‘culture of sympathy’ towards acts of resistance to the state, a culture that has …

¿Gobernadores Eternos? Un Análisis Comparativo De Las Reelecciones En Argentina Y Brasil, Lucas Jolías, Augusto Reina

Lucas Jolías

Cuando se plantea el tema de las reelecciones a nivel provincial emerge una idea directa y sencilla: esto es que las reelecciones son instituciones forzadas por los gobernadores para enquistarse en el poder. Y que, de forma consecuente, estos mecanismos permiten que ciertas oligarquías políticas provinciales se mantengan en el poder a su gusto. Pero, tal como queremos plasmar en el presente artículo, achacarle tantas cosas a la reelección es sobreestimar los efectos de la institución. Plantear el tema en términos tan simples pone de lado otros procesos políticos que facilitan la estabilidad de las elites en la cima del …

Comparing Strategic Voting Under Fptp And Pr, Paul Abramson, John Aldrich, André Blais, Matthew Diamond, Abraham Diskin, Indridi Indridason, Daniel Lee, Renan Levine

Renan Levine

It is generally argued that strategic voting occurs in plurality-vote-win systems, but that the proportion of voters who act strategically diminishes as systems become more proportional. It is widely assumed that in PR systems voters care only about legislative representation and ignore the policy implications of their votes. We contend that voters in PR systems do vote strategically and that their decisions are guided by the potential to influence policy outcomes. We compare vote intentions in the United States, Mexico, and Britain, and the 1999 Israeli Prime Ministerial election, to PR elections in Israel and the Netherlands. We find that …

Instrumental Value Of Elite Memories On Past Violence During The Emergence Of A New State: Slovenian Experience, Anton Kramberger, Ana Barbič, Katja Boh

Anton Kramberger

The chapter touches upon the trauma of emerging from subordination to the past (communist) regime of some members (nearly 40 per cent) of the new Slovenian elite. The experienced subordination, including political maltreatment, imprisonment, or confiscation of their assets and/or property is important not only during the regime change (1988-1992) but also in any analysis of contemporary Slovenian political situation for these memories are rather regularly triggered in the public sphere. They frame unsettled contemporary political culture of the country and feed today’s discernable distrust of political authorities.
