  • Voices of Discontent: Unpacking Populist Rhetoric in Spain and the Rise of Anti-European Sentiment

    Open Access•Belén Casas-Mas, Arturo Rodríguez Sáez et al.•ARTICLE•Media and Communication•2025

    In the last decade, most EU countries have seen the unstoppable growth of populist parties, especially on the right, but also on the left. Their Euro-critical discourse, sometimes openly Eurosceptic, is helping to erode the legitimacy of the EU. This research aims to analyze the presence of populist discourse among major Spanish political parties during the 2024 European elections on platform X. Utilizing a mixed-methods approach, we collected tw…

  • Back to polarization: An epistemological review from social network analysis

    Open Access•Josep M Robles, Belén Casas-Mas et al.•ARTICLE•Tempo Social•2025

    The concept of political polarization increasingly appears in academic and media vocabulary. However, there is not a single definition of this term that allows us a structured and coherent production of knowledge in relation to its nature, determinants, and consequences. In this article, we make a proposal to define a variant of political polarization that occurs in spaces of digital public debate. We intend to offer one more resource to improve …

    Diversos estudios señalan la proliferación de canales de información en la sociedad digital.

  • Polarization and hate speech based on fuzzy logic and transformers: The case of the 2023 Spanish general elections

    Juan Antonio Guevara, Belén Casas-Mas et al.•ARTICLE•Mathematical Population Studies•2024

    Affective polarization in the digital debate of the Spanish presidential election campaign (2023), following the sudden call of the Spanish president on July 23, was measured. Using transformers, topics were detected, and sentiment analysis techniques were applied in the political debate during the elections to measure the emotional valence of the debate. The topics that dominate most of the debate are Candidates (n1 = 17170) and Opposition (n3 =…

  • Emotivism Trends in Digital Political Communication: The Influence on the Results of the US Presidential Elections

    Open Access•Belén Casas-Mas, Martin Fernández Marcellán et al.•ARTICLE•Social Sciences•2024•References: 9

    Citizens, organizations and institutions are increasingly making use of digital social networks such as Twitter as a means by which to express their position as regards political topics. However, an increasing amount of academic literature coincides, in that it highlights the emotive and expressive nature of these positions. In other words, for the most part, the political opinions that are publicized are more like backing based on support or rej…

  • La cuestión abierta de las tres P: Polarización, populismo y posverdad en perspectiva emotivista

    Open Access•Arturo Rodríguez Sáez, Josep M Robles•ARTICLE•Isegoría•2023

    La polarización, los populismos y la posverdad forman tres fenómenos sociopolíticos fundamentales para comprender cómo se está orientando la política en los sistemas demoliberales. La polarización política se suele entender como un proceso dinámico de activación de las divisiones entre dos o más grupos sociales en el transcurso de los debates públicos que puede terminar con una ruptura comunicativa o una comunicación fallida. Si bien los especial…

  • Polarization and incivility in digital debates on women's rights in Spain. Not just a matter of machismo

    Juan Antonio Guevara, Julia Atienza-Barthelemy et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Gender Studies•2023•References: 28

    As is the case in many other countries, Spain faces the challenge of drastically reducing the presence of gender violence. In this paper, we analyse how public digital debate in Spain gives insight into this topic. Specifically, we are interested in analysing the ways in which processes such as polarization or incivility are manifested on social networks. Our thesis is that, in addition to the central role played by structural machismo, there are…

  • Affective homogeneity in the Spanish general election debate. A comparative analysis of social networks political agents

    Josep M Robles, José Manuel Robles et al.•ARTICLE•Information Communication & Society•2020

    Many experts in the social sciences are studying the extent to which the agents of democratic political systems tend to strengthen their points of view to such an extent that it reduces their capacity to engage and debate with those who hold different points of view. This phenomenon, called polarization, is also present in public debate on social networks and has generated a significant number of studies and empirical research. In this context, a…

They originated in Africa around the Oligocene/Miocene boundary, but by the beginning of the Middle Miocene they expanded their range into Eurasia, where they experienced a far-reaching evolutionary radiation. A Eurasian origin of the great ape and human clade (Hominidae) has been favored by several authors, but the assessment of this hypothesis h…

    Una de las cuestiones más controvertidas en el estudio de las tecnologías de la Información y las comunicaciones (tIc) es qué lleva a unos ciudadanos y no a otros a iniciarse en el uso de este tipo de tecnologías. La teoría más común en los estudios individualistas metodológicos sobre el uso de las tIc es la etiquetada como technological acceptance model (tam). Este modelo privilegia las variables individuales y subjetivas en la explicación del u…

    En el estudio de la participación política las variables relacionadas con las actitudes y las creencias hacia la política y las variables sociodemográficas son un lugar común. Nosotros tomamos estas dos tradiciones para estudiar la participación política digital. Sin embargo, no lo hacemos, como suele ser costumbre en los estudios políticos, para explicar el activismo, sino para explicar un tipo concreto de desigualdad en la sociedad de la inform…

  • Activating Activists: The links between political participation and digital political participation

    Josep M Robles, José Manuel Robles et al.•ARTICLE•Information Communication & Society•2013

    Digital political participation is an emerging phenomenon that has attracted the attention of a great number of researchers. In most cases, digital political participation (DPP) has been treated as an independent variable in order to attempt to understand other phenomena such as, for instance, changes in offline political participation. However, empirical studies have failed to demonstrate this relationship. In this article, we try to revert this…

  • The use of digital social networks from an analytical sociology perspective: The case of Spain

    Open Access•Josep M Robles, José Manuel Robles et al.•ARTICLE•Rationality and Society•2015•Cited by: 1•References: 38

    Digital social networks have attracted the attention of a growing number of specialists. The use of digital tools such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube to express socio-political demands or to perform protest actions has become a central issue for social science today. However, few studies analyse the factors behind this phenomenon using explanatory models based on analytical sociology and rational action. In this article, we take steps in this d…
