Between formal and informal. Promoting feminization of the managerial positions of Italian universities after the neoliberal turn
Part of the broad line of research on inequalities in academia, this article focuses on a more specific but less investigated aspect: men’s and women’s unequal access to university governance positions in the context of neoliberal academia. We assume from the literature on institutional change and gender equality the importance of considering both formal and informal rules. The article empirically analyzes the Italian case study, where a variety …
Cybersecurity and Italian critical infrastructures: The return of the state
Security strategies have increasingly come to include references to critical infrastructures, seen as security assets to be preserved. In the Italian case, the rise in cyberattacks against critical infrastructures has been associated with a perception of their increasing relevance as potential threats. This has led to renewed attention towards the governance model adopted in this issue area and, in particular, towards the role of private actors a…
Hungary's Populist Government and the Contestation of EU Foreign Policy Co‐Operation at the United Nations: Dogs That Bark Do Not Bite
This article provides an analysis of Hungary's role in EU foreign policy co‐operation at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in the period from its accession to the EU in 2004 till 2021, which involved the shift from mainstream parties to successive governments led by the populist radical right (PRR) Fidesz party. Shifting attention to norm contestation in EU foreign policy co‐operation, it examines the extent to which Hungary's PRR govern…
Institutional change, sovereigntist contestation and the limits of populism: Evidence from southern Europe
It is widely recognized that populists oppose the delegation of more decision-making to supranational actors and that this tendency can be constrained by other branches of government, geopolitical power pressures or factors such as whether populists are minor or major members of coalitions. The literature, however, has not elaborated on how the transformation of international organizations can affect populist politics. We aim to fill this gap wit…
The 2021 G20 and Italy: Keeping our dreams alive
Italy’s presidency of the G20 defied the odds and resulted in costly commitments by the members on a range of issues: global health, climate change, a minimum global tax, and the crisis in Afghanistan. How can we explain this success? Italy’s prime minister, Mario Draghi, and his extensive prior experience and widespread respect was certainly a factor. The global context was also important, with the new Biden administration in the US leading a gr…
Foreign policy and de-Europeanization under the M5S–League government: Exploring the Italian behavior in the UN General Assembly
This article explores the first declaredly populist and Eurosceptical Italian government’s role as a potential driver of de-Europeanization dynamics in Italian foreign policy. After describing the M5S–League government’s discursive de-Europeanization on core substantive EU values, the article focuses on multilateralism, a critical pillar of Italian foreign policy and a substantive norm of the European Union, and investigates the actual foreign po…
Do terrorism, organized crime (drug production), and state weakness affect contemporary armed conflicts? An empirical analysis
In 2014, the UN Security Council emphasized the dangers of terrorism, criminal activity (especially drug production and trafficking), and state weakness in conflict areas. However, neither policy debates nor scholarly analyses have focussed on the potential impact of these elements on conflict dynamics and characteristics, and the investigated partial relationships have led to inconclusive results. This article explores the presence in armed conf…
Mind the gap: IR and the challenge of international politics
The discipline of International Relations (IR) for a long time of its history has developed in the form of Great Debates that involved competing paradigms and schools. More recently, it has been described as a cacophony of voices unable to communicate among themselves, but also incapable to provide keys to understand an ever more complex reality. This collection aims at evaluating the heuristic value of a selection of traditional paradigms (reali…
Coalition building in the UN Security Council
Political coalitions in the international system are still understudied in International Relations theory. This article claims that the formation of and variations in coalitions in the international system are affected by changes in their bargaining power and bargaining environment related to the global leadership cycle and by long-term organisational changes of the international political system. Identifying the Security Council as the instituti…
