Dr. Paolo Chiocchetti

Dr. Chiocchetti erforscht die politische Ökonomie und Diskurse von Populismus, insbesondere in Großbritannien und Deutschland, sowie die Fragmentierung der europäischen Integration. Sein aktueller Fokus liegt auf der Analyse von Eurosceptizismus, Brexit-Folgen für Demokratie und Institutionen sowie auf rechtspopulistischen Bewegungen. Er kombiniert dabei quantitative Analysen von Rechtsnormen und Wahltrends mit qualitativen Diskursanalysen politischer Kampagnen. Seine Arbeiten sind für Regierungen, Behörden und Organisationen relevant, die Populismustrends, politische Polarisierung und europäische Integrationsfragen verstehen müssen.

• The Radical Left Party Family in Western Europe, 1989-2015

  2016

  DOI

  This book provides an innovative analysis and interpretation of the overall trajectory of the Western European radical left from 1989 to 2015. After the collapse of really existing communism, this party family renewed itself and embarked on a recovery path, seeking to fill the vacuum of representation of disaffected working-class and welfarist constituencies created by the progressive neoliberalisation of European societies. The radical left thus emerged as a significant factor of contemporary political life but, despite some electoral gains and a few recent breakthroughs (SYRIZA in Greece, PODEMOS in Spain), it altogether failed to embody a credible alternative to neoliberalism and to pave the way for a turn to a different developmental model. This book investigates why this was the case, combining aggregate (17 countries), case study (Germany, Italy, and France), and comparative methods. It accurately charts the evolution of the nature, strength, cohesion, and influence of the Western European radical left, offering new insights in explaining its behaviour, success, and limits. It is essential reading for scholars, students, and activists interested in the radical left and in contemporary European politics.

• External differentiated integration: between stability and change

  2025

  West European Politics · DOI

  The external relations of the European Union (EU) are complex. Existing research has handled this complexity by approaching the EU’s external relations from a variety of distinct perspectives. The present special issue, by contrast, depicts the differentiated nature of the EU’s external relations as a feature of European integration that requires study and explanation in its own right. This introduction establishes a link between integration and external relations by drawing on the concept of external differentiated integration (EDI). After a discussion of the concept and theory of EDI, the introduction empirically shows how EDI has evolved over time at the macro-level, identifying periods of intensifying EDI and periods of relative stagnation. The article subsequently argues that this pattern confirms the existing literature on demand-side factors, but also points to the importance of supply-side factors, especially the nature of the international system.
