This book questions whether and to what extent a conjunctural
phenomenon such as an economic crisis can bring about lasting
political consequences. It focuses on the parties and party systems
of four South European countries (Portugal, Spain, Italy, and
Greece) between 2008-15. The authors also consider how elections,
protests, and interests are affected by the crisis in these four
democracies, before assessing how to define the impact of the
economic crisis on political participation and competition. In this
vein the book analyzes relevant aspects of party systems, the
notion of neo-populism as a key to understanding new actors of
South European policy, and interest intermediation as a factor of
weakness in managing the crisis. Finally, the authors summarize the
empirical results emerging from the research: the partial reshaping
of cleavages as well as the relevance of the establishment vs.
anti-establishment cleavage for the emergence and success of
neo-populist parties. The book will be of use to students and
scholars interested in South European politics, comparative
politics, and democracies.
