Populist discourses: Constructing and representing antagonisms in CEE populism

Abstract

This panel is part of the section S22 "Explaining Right-Wing Populism in Central and Eastern Europe: Economics, Politics, (Civil) Society and Culture", jointly organized by the two EU-funded Horizon2020 projects FATIGUE and POPREBEL. Aiming to allow for inter- and transdisciplinary discussion, the section combines approaches from political theory, political sociology, political economy, political culture, and political discourse to explain and understand the present wave of populist mobilizations in post-socialist Central and Eastern Europe. This panel explores populist discourses in Central and Eastern Europe, focusing on how political ideas and ideologies are constructed in interaction.
