The rhetoric of responsibility in party manifestos (1980–2021)
Focusing on the responsibility–responsiveness dilemma, we analyze responsibility rhetoric (defined as the emphasis on elements such as national solidarity, the public interest, and public-spiritedness), hypothesizing that it is used by parties moderating their policy positions, to justify deviations from their traditional standpoints, as well as by large incumbent parties seeking to claim credit for their responsible actions. In contrast, populis…

Common sense, populism, and reactionary politics on Twitter: An analysis of populist far-right common sense narratives between 2008 and 2022
Far-right parties often depict their ideas as ‘common sense’ and as self-evident, natural, just, and proper. This article examines the extent to which there is a uniform ‘far-right common sense’. Using a mixed-methods computational approach, we analysed Twitter posts mentioning ‘common sense’ from the accounts of far-right parties in the UK, France, Italy, and the USA between 2008 and 2022. Results from our comparative study suggest that uniformi…
