{"title":"Europeanisation or renationalisation?","authors":"Vratislav Havlík","doi":"10.2307/j.ctvm202v5.6","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2307/j.ctvm202v5.6","url":null,"abstract":"The aim of this chapter is twofold. First, to describe the\u0000influence of the economic crisis on the Czech party system, and\u0000second, to describe the growth of party and public\u0000Euroscepticism as one of the consequences of the economic\u0000crisis. The analysis consists of six parts. The second part\u0000briefly presents some key economic and labour market data. The\u0000third part analyses the role of former President Vaclav Klaus\u0000in the context of the debate around the economic crisis. As a\u0000known Eurosceptic, Klaus emerged as an agenda setter in the\u0000debates surrounding the crisis, warned about the disadvantages\u0000of future adoption of the Euro in CR, and emphatically\u0000contributed to the Czech government's opposition to the steps\u0000taken by the European Commission to prevent future crises.\u0000Klaus therefore took advantage of the Eurozone’s economic\u0000crisis to criticise the EU. In the fourth part, the reactions\u0000of political parties will be analysed. In this respect,\u0000attention will focus primarily on voters' dramatic shift away\u0000from the party which up to that point had been dominant, the\u0000ODS (Civic Democratic Party); to a certain extent this is also\u0000an indirect fallout from the economic crisis. Therefore, the\u0000topics of the stability of cleavages and the possible\u0000Europeanisation of patterns of party competition will also be\u0000discussed. The fifth part will focus on the Czech discussion\u0000concerned with the adoption of the euro; unlike the party\u0000system, this discussion was directly affected by the economic\u0000crisis. The sixth part will shed light on the position of the\u0000Czech public.","PeriodicalId":329516,"journal":{"name":"Europeanisation and Renationalisation","volume":"98 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124189782","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Crum","doi":"10.2307/j.ctvm202v5.5","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.2307/j.ctvm202v5.5","url":null,"abstract":"Never before did a Dutch election attract as much attention from foreign media as the one on 15 March 2017. Journalists swarmed to the Netherlands, driven by one big question: Will Geert Wilders win? Wilders became a topic of particular interest thanks to the dramatic votes of 2016: the Brexit referendum in the United Kingdom and the election of Donald Trump as President of the United States. The prospect thus lured that the Netherlands would see a similar dramatic turn-around, one that would be indicative of a transnational ‘rise of populism’. Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte qualified – and dismissed – such expectations as a ‘domino theory’ which suggests that with one or two countries falling prey to populist movements, the rest will follow automatically (Jonker 2017). Eventually, Wilders was not the big victor of 15 March. He got 13.3 percent of the vote-share, corresponding to 20 of the 150 seats in the Dutch Lower House, which is five seats more than he got at the previous elections in 2012 but four less than his best result to date in 2010. What is more, the Freedom Party certainly did not become the biggest party, and it was effectively side-lined from the government to be formed. Ironically, soon, commentators started to float a reverse domino theory, in which the relative loss of Wilders was prefigured by the win of Alexander Van der Bellen of the presidential elections in Austria and followed in May 2017 by the victory of Emanuel Macron over Marine Le Pen in the French presidential elections. However, if anything, the experience of the Dutch elections signals the normalization of anti-pluralist populism, even if they do not come out victorious. While for a long time, anti-pluralist populist parties could still be treated as an aberration and a rather marginal phenomenon, recent elections indicate that they are there to stay as a significant political force in many political systems. Considerable attention has been devoted to those EU member states, Hungary and Poland, in which we witness actual backsliding","PeriodicalId":329516,"journal":{"name":"Europeanisation and Renationalisation","volume":"117 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116674533","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
