From Message to Vibe: TikTok and Hybrid Political Communication in the 2024 UK Election
The 2024 UK general election has been widely described as the country’s first “TikTok election”, reflecting the platform’s growing role in political campaigning, particularly among younger audiences. This article examines how Labour and the Conservative Party adapted political communication to TikTok’s platform affordances through the use of popular culture, pop culture, and digital vernaculars. Empirically, the article draws on a content analysi…

Diasporic Epistemologies in Cuban Independent Journalism
This article examines how digital diasporic journalism changes epistemic practices in the Cuban context. The last decade has seen a practical transnationalization of digitally native independent news sites in Cuba in light of two phenomena: the emigration/forced exile of many young journalists and the affordances of digital technologies, making it possible for these journalists to continue reporting despite their spatial dispersion abroad. How ar…

Caring Ecologies of the New Right and Left: Populist Performances of Care During the Pandemic
This article examines leaders’ ability to take care of the people during a global pandemic. The article focuses on two populist leaders in Spain: Ada Colau, Barcelona’s mayor and a global municipalist referent, and Isabel Díaz Ayuso, president of the Community of Madrid and a referent of the new right in Europe. The analysis is informed by theoretical discussions on care, examining how populists perform micro and macro practices of care(lessness)…

Cuba's Digital Revolution: Citizen Innovation and State Policy
The triumph of the Cuban Revolution gave the Communist Party a monopoly over both politics and the mass media. However, with the subsequent global proliferation of new information and communication technologies, Cuban citizens have become active participants in the worldwide digital revolution. While the Cuban internet has long been characterized by censorship, high costs, slow speeds, and limited access, this volume argues that since 2013, techn…
Constructing collective identities and solidarity in premiers’ early speeches on Covid-19: A global perspective
The COVID-19 pandemic has prompted a unique global experience, arousing both exclusionary nationalistic and inclusionary responses of solidarity. This article aims to explore the discursive and linguistic means by which the COVID-19 pandemic, as a macro-event, has been translated into local micro-events. The analysis studies the global pandemic through the initial statements of 29 leading political actors across four continents. The aim is to exa…
Politicians “Stay Home”: Left-Wing Populism and Performances of the Intimate Self on Social Media During the Covid-19 Pandemic
This paper analyses the intimate space of politicians at home during lockdown through their personal Instagram accounts, using both live stories (which I have been saving daily), the pictures and videos they post and the accompanying text. In order to do so, it will focus on two young female politicians who have become iconic for left-wing movements around the world. They are Ada Colau, Mayor of Barcelona (Spain), and Alessandria Ocasio-Cortez, r…
Periodismo Alternativo Cubano: Un acercamiento a la violencia indirecta en perspectiva comparada
Este ensayo analiza el periodismo alternativo en Cuba de manera comparada, explicando cómo su deslegitimación legal y discursiva ha servido para justificar ataques tanto directos como indirectos contra los periodistas. El principal argumento es que los acercamientos positivistas pasan por alto las agresiones estructurales y simbólicas que sufren los periodistas, que son difícilmente computables. A esto se une el acercamiento occidental binario a …
