Rural populists? Questioning the link between anti-environmentalism, populism and science criticism in rural areas
This paper aims to disentangle the dynamics of environmental conflicts in rural areas through a mixed qualitative and quantitative analysis of two case studies, in Italy and Portugal. Focusing on how opposition to environmental policies can be interpreted beyond reductive labels such as ‘rural populism’ or ‘anti-environmentalism’, our findings emphasise the importance of considering context-specific needs and community perspectives. By questionin…
From Big Farms to Big Pharma? Problematizing science-related populism
Skepticism about health/vaccination policies during Covid-19 was considered a key example of “science-related populism” mainly based on far-right case studies. However, criticism also spread among various left-wing and environmentalist milieus, which represents an understudied phenomenon. Relying on different strands of scientific literature, and on a qualitative research design aimed both to take account of the political heterogeneity within thi…
The Neo-populist Surge in Italy between Territorial and Traditional Cleavages
The rise of neo-populist parties in Western countries is a current issue in social sciences. Over the past two decades, and with increasing emphasis in recent years, a notable body of research has been preoccupied with explaining the complex relationship between populism and places. This paper fits in this literature and is aimed at verifying the role played by territorial inequalities and the urban-rural divide on voting preferences in Italy. Th…
Divari territoriali e cambiamento politico. Una geografia critica a partire dal caso marchigiano
The territorial dimension of political changes is at the core of a vibrant debate in which the emergence of (neo)populism is mainly interpreted as an outcome of the inequalities and social changes that affect the political demand. The present work, through the development of a case study focused on the Marche region, aims at shed light on the importance of the elements that define the political supply. The analysis shows the relationship patterns…
The Casa delle Libertà
The Italian centre-right was 'constructed' by Silvio Berlusconi in the run-up to the 1994 general election, which marked the beginning of the Second Republic. It includes Forza Italia, the National Alliance, the Northern League and the Union of Christian Democrats (UDC), parties which are all very different in terms of their political identities, histories, geographies and social composition. The centre-right thus looks like a complex mosaic, who…
