Assessing public sphere influence on political attitudes across generations: A mixed-methods study of generational political structuring in Italy
We present a project investigating the impact of social media on ideological structuring of political attitudes in a generational perspective, with Italy (around the 2024 European Parliament elections) as a case study. We introduce an innovative mixed-methods, sequential, quantitative-driven, multi-stage design combining surveys, qualitative interviews, and social media data, which effectively integrates qualitative and quantitative components to…
Identifying delegation and constraints in legislative texts: A computational method applied to the European Union
We introduce a computational method for identifying delegating and constraining provisions in European Union (EU) laws. Leveraging the syntactic structures employed by legislators, we developed a set of extraction rules applied through a custom-built computational linguistics pipeline. We run through the pipeline more than 600,000 legal sentences that we extracted from 9319 laws adopted between 1958 and 2019. The application performs very well vi…
Concepts and measures of bureaucratic constraints in European Union laws from hand‐coding to machine‐learning
Scholars employ two main measures of the executive constraints embedded in European Union laws: one is based on the variation in the use of different types of restrictions, and the second is based on the frequency of such use. They reflect two alternative conceptualizations of bureaucratic control. We label them, respectively, as the “toolbox perspective” and the “design perspective”. We illustrate that the constraint frequency measure poses fewe…
Facebook as a media digest: User engagement and party references to hostile and friendly media during an election campaign
This paper investigates how parties spread news from traditional media on their social network accounts to engage followers. In particular, we address why parties would choose to include in the ‘media digest’ they carefully craft for their followers also content from ‘hostile’ media outlets and journalists. We analyze 4,586 Facebook posts published by the main Italian parties during the 2019 European election campaign, assessing the impact on rea…
