Abstract

This research delves into the territorial nuances of political populism, examining Portugal’s CHEGA party as a case study. Through a comprehensive analysis of survey data and correlational studies, this study reveals that discontent, manifesting in the rise of populist movements, is intricately linked to the economic decline and neglect of specific regions. The unexpected success of CHEGA is not merely a socio-economic phenomenon but a product of deeply rooted territorial dynamics. The findings underscore the importance of adopting place-sensitive development policies that address the unique challenges of overlooked territories, steering clear of traditional compensatory measures. The urgency to counteract long-term economic decline, industrial decay, and brain drain demands innovative strategies that tap into latent economic potential and provide tangible opportunities. As we confront the rise of anti-establishment voting threatening European unity, this research advocates for a paradigm shift towards place-sensitive policies to navigate the crossroads of discontent and foster a more resilient, inclusive future.
不满、民粹主义,还是 "无关紧要的地方 "的复仇?葡萄牙极右翼崛起分析
本研究以葡萄牙 CHEGA 党为案例,深入探讨了政治民粹主义在地域上的细微差别。通过对调查数据和相关研究的综合分析,本研究揭示了民粹主义运动兴起所表现出的不满情绪与特定地区的经济衰退和被忽视有着错综复杂的联系。CHEGA 的意外成功不仅仅是一种社会经济现象,也是根深蒂固的地区动态的产物。研究结果强调,必须采取对地方敏感的发展政策,以应对被忽视地区的独特挑战,避免采取传统的补偿措施。应对长期经济衰退、产业衰败和人才流失的紧迫性要求我们采取创新战略,挖掘潜在的经济潜力,提供切实的机遇。当我们面对反建制投票的崛起威胁到欧洲的团结时,本研究主张进行范式转变,采取对地方有敏感认识的政策,在不满情绪的十字路口前行,创造一个更有韧性、更具包容性的未来。
