Countering National-Level Populism with Local Politics? Broadening Participatory Processes in Budapest in Illiberal Hungary
This paper explores how political opposition at the local level responds to national populism, focusing on Budapest’s reactions to Viktor Orbán’s government. It addresses the under-researched national–local nexus in populism studies by examining counter-populist strategies rooted in democratic values such as pluralism, inclusion, and solidarity. Through semi-structured interviews and analysis of documents and media, the paper maps how the lord ma…
Shades of Resistance
Although the past decade has shown how populist governments may challenge the EU’s budgetary framework, we still lack an understanding of the circumstances under which populists are more likely to mobilize against EU-level decision-making in this field, and what this mobilization may look like. Combining the literature on populism as an ideology and EU decision-making, the article zooms in on the negotiations regarding the general regime of condi…

Divergent Attitudes of Eurosceptic Parties Towards Intergovernmental and Supranational EU Institutions
How do Eurosceptic parties position themselves regarding individual European Union (EU) institutions? Using Euromanifesto data from 1979 to 2019, this study addresses this question by disaggregating the attitudes of party families towards separate intergovernmental and supranational EU institutions. It focuses on the relationship between the identities of radical left‐ and right‐wing parties and Euroscepticism. The findings reveal that post‐commu…
The challenge populist governments pose for the process and theory of European integration
Although populists in government have already frustrated the common interest projects, curbed the institutional progress, and questioned the fundamental values of the European Union, integration theories have so far failed to address the question: what explains populist governments’ actions within the EU? This article claims that existing accounts either downplay the relevance or fail to grasp the complexity of populist governments, because popul…
The EU's New Economic Governance Framework and Budgetary Decision‐Making in the Member States
The euro crisis has sparked changes in the EU's economic governance framework and a crisis of legitimacy across the union. While the institutional repercussions of the crisis have been studied before, the democratic impact at the national level has received much less attention. This paper aims to fill this gap, focusing on the procedural changes that the EU's new economic governance (NEG) framework has brought to national budgetary decision‐makin…
The Politics of Populism in Hungary
The book assesses the development of the Orbán regime in Hungary after 2010 through analyzing the polity-politics-policy impacts from a perspective of populism as an ideology focusing on discourse and actual decisions. By closely scrutinizing political narratives, actual decisions and survey data, this volume offers a systematic analysis of the impact of populism on the polity-politics-policy aspects of the political in Hungary after 2010. It ana…
Populism as a ‘corrective’ to trade agreements? ‘America First’ and the readjustment of Nafta
The past few years have seen an upsurge in populist politics around the globe. Yet, its potential impact on the liberal international order has been analyzed mainly from a discursive perspective, and much less is known about actual policy implications. Adopting an ideational approach to populism and taking the case of the NAFTA renegotiation process as a building block in the liberal economic order, this article studies the populist imprints of t…
Does Politicization Matter? Small States in East-Central Europe and the Brexit Negotiations
The integration process is increasingly politicized across the member states of the European Union (EU). While this phenomenon has been analyzed from many perspectives, this article aims to look at a so far neglected aspect—how increased levels of politicization of the EU might have impacted on the role small states play in the EU decision-making process. Using the case of Brexit negotiations, the article starts from the hypothesis that higher le…
Who determined what governments really wanted? Preference formation and the euro crisis
This article reviews how different integration theories interpret which political actors mattered in governmental preference formation during the euro crisis. It presents new evidence on the respective influence of national governments, European Union (EU) intergovernmental bodies – including the Eurogroup, the European Council and expert committees – supranational institutions, as well as parliamentary forces and socio-economic interest groups. …
We won’t let Brussels dictate us
As a result of various crises, the European Union (EU) witnessed the rise of Eurosceptic and/or populist parties in its member states. However, the link between Euroscepticism and populism remains under-theorized, and the East-Central European (ECE) region is still surprisingly under-studied. This paper aims to fill these gaps by studying the development of Eurosceptic populist narratives in Hungary and Poland. Connecting the literature on Eurosc…
Federalism and the stringency of balanced budget rules – A comparative study of Canada, the European Union, and the United States of America
Studies of federalism concerning the impact of (fiscal) decentralization on budgetary stability produced inconclusive results. Ambiguous findings lead to uncertain budgetary expectations, and consequently, the level of stringency of adopted balanced budget rules (BBRs) varies across the spectrum of different federal models. This article clarifies the link between the structure of federalism and the stringency of BBRs. It argues that rather than d…
Neither episodic, nor destined to failure? The endurance of Hungarian populism after 2010
How can populists potentially extend their time in power? Departing from the notion that populism is a "thin-centered" ideology, the article argues that as long as populists manage to continuously (a) reconstruct "the elite" and "the people," (b) reinforce the antagonistic relationship between "the corrupt elite" and "the pure people," and (c) remodel popular sovereignty, it is likely that they can lengthen the life expectancy of their regime. An…
Horizontal coordination in federal political systems – non-centralization in the European Union and Canada compared
Using a comparative federalist approach, the main objective of this article is to understand how horizontal coordination in federal political systems is likely to materialize. Starting from the notion of 'shared rule', the article argues that 'non-centralization' may occur in a given policy area when the loss of resources at the constituent unit level is not compensated with an equivalent increase in federal powers. In the meantime, horizontal in…
