Abstract

ABSTRACT Nationalism is presumed to promote individual and collective freedoms. Under contemporary populism, however, its inclusive vision is reformatted toward an ‘us-versus-them’ form. Against the backdrop of media populism, this article shows how exclusionary nationalism hinges on the communicative might of Facebook which forms part of the bigger project of mediatization of politics in Rodrigo Duterte’s Philippines. Through a reading of Duterte pages and interviews with journalists, it examines the prominent themes and narratives that stitch the ‘pro-Duterte’ and ‘anti-critics’ divide. The former is characterized by pro-masses icon, mainstreaming of infrastructure programmes, and police-military forces, and the latter by anti-indigenous hate, homogenization of opposition, and red-tagging. The implications of these narratives on media populism are presented.
脸书民粹主义:菲律宾排外民族主义的中介叙事
摘要民族主义被认为是促进个人和集体自由的。然而,在当代民粹主义下,其包容性愿景被重新调整为“我们对抗他们”的形式。在媒体民粹主义的背景下,本文展示了排斥性民族主义如何取决于脸书的传播能力,脸书是罗德里戈·杜特尔特领导的菲律宾政治调解更大项目的一部分。通过阅读杜特尔特的页面和对记者的采访,它审视了弥合“亲杜特尔特”和“反批评者”分歧的突出主题和叙事。前者的特点是亲群众的偶像、基础设施计划的主流化和警察部队,而后者的特点是反土著仇恨、反对派的同质化和红色标签。这些叙述对媒体民粹主义的影响被提出。
