Facing the Hydra Head of Populism
The postcolonial sociology of love in Gandhi’s non-violent political culture of Satyagraha
Satyagraha is the philosophy of non-violent resistance and a critical constructivist approach—building on life experience and experimentation—to social action. It was delineated by M. K. Gandhi in the first half of the 20th century and characterized the anti-colonial struggle in India. It was also mobilized to overcome polarization between religious, social, and cultural groups in search of dialogue. Finally, Satyagraha included postcolonial prov…
Discriminated and Violent? The Social Representations of Minorities in the Rise of Radical Right Populist Parties in Portugal and Italy
The rise of radical right-wing parties in Europe brings new dynamics and challenges to western liberal democratic models, particularly in how these parties construct narratives around minorities, often framing them as threats to national identity and security. Given the historical background of populist governments in Italy and Portugal being, until recently, an exception in the context of populism in Europe, the comparison between these two coun…
Emotion narratives of Trump and Harris disputing US political culture in the 2024 electoral campaign
This article analyses the divergent affective discourse strategies employed by Donald Trump and Kamala Harris during their 2024 US presidential campaign speeches. It explores how both candidates mobilise similar emotions – anger, fear/anxiety, pride, love, courage/fearlessness, confidence/determination and hope – but with different consistencies, targeting distinct threats and protectors of US political culture. The study draws on the theoretical…
Emotion Narratives on the Political Culture of Radical Right Populist Parties in Portugal and Italy
The growth of radical right politics raises concerns about authoritarian and exclusionary scenarios, while populism is understood as a logic that articulates democratic demands and strengthens political engagement. There is a lack of research on the democratic views of radical right populism. Moreover, the burgeoning literature on these phenomena generally examines either the supply or demand side of politics, neglecting the narrative dimension t…
E-motions and participation in technopopulist movement-parties. Enthusiasm and technopolitical disillusion
This work is financed by portuguese national funds through the FCT - Foundation for Science and Technology, I.P., under the project UNPOP 'UNpacking POPulism: Comparing the formation of emotion narratives and their effects on political behaviour (PTDC/CPO-CPO/3850/2020) and by FCT Programmatic Funding (UIDP/50012/2020). It was supported by the postdoctoral research program at the University of the Balearic Islands (call 2021) funded by the UIB an…
Undermining populism through Gandhi’s intercultural democratic discourse
Populism is receiving increasing attention and the intrinsic dependency of populism from liberal democracy is being scrutinised to find forms able to contain the populist rise, so far with limited success. Little consideration has been given to the implications that populism is a modern political category that could not emerge without liberal democratic regimes. This article analyses the entanglement between postcolonialism, democratic theory and…
Technologies, infrastructures and migrations
This article aims to explore the multiple uses and consequences of different technologies and infrastructures in the context of migrations and how such uses and consequences inhabit and transform migrants’ rights and subjectivities. It reviews relevant literature at the intersection of citizenship, critical migration studies and science and technology studies (STS), focusing in particular on the current debates underway within critical citizenshi…
Suicídio e violência estrutural. Revisão sistemática de uma correlação marcada pelo colonialismo
O suicídio é a última das causas externas de morte (CE) (que incluem homicídios e acidentes) a apresentar concentração de casos (80%) em países de baixa e média renda. Há literatura consolidada identificando a violência estrutural como determinante para as CE, mas pouca quanto ao suicídio. O objetivo deste artigo é definir novo marco teórico para o estudo do suicídio como fenômeno social, onde a interação social reflete as marcas do colonialismo.…
Party-Movement’s Power Dynamics in Transcultural Perspectives
Political parties are privileged phenomena from which to analyse and understand political power dynamics; this article focuses on a specific type: party-movements. These are considered to be particularly interesting because they have emerged from civil society, carry innovative political ideas based on participation and entail new forms of sharing political power. Looking very closely at the power dynamics within party-movements, this empirical r…
Democratisation beyond the Crisis of Liberalism, Bringing Civil Society within the State
Philosophers, sociologists and political scientists may analyse political crises by looking at the relationship between the liberal and democratic pillars of liberal-democratic regimes. Social questioning of representation (abstention, apathy and protest) is a democratic response to the failure of the liberal pillar to democratise access to political power, therefore, the crisis of liberalism. M. K. Gandhi developed an alternative theory based on…
Human rights and nature
What is the impact of human rights on the protection of Nature? Considering the rapid development of international human rights law during the last century and the parallel degradation of the environment leading to climate change, it could be concluded that human rights have had a negative impact on environmental protection, or at least that they have not had a positive impact on it. This article aims to investigate whether this is true, and if s…
Explosive emotions
Eva Illouz’s Explosive emotions is an erudite and stylistically refined contribution to the sociology of emotions. Its distinctive method places social facts in dialogue with literary art, which co...
