Dear friends
We would like to announce the new
special issue of South European Society and
Politics entitled Elections in Hard
Times: Southern Europe, 2010-11.
Available at http://www.tandfonline.com/toc/fses20/17/2
The special issue addresses the
political consequences of economic crisis in
Southern Europe, the region at the heart of the
European sovereign debt crisis and in the vanguard
of the programmes of radical economic austerity
implemented to confront it. It offers case studies
of 12 votes (legislative, presidential and
sub-national elections and a national-level
referendum) across the South European region during
the first two years of the crisis. The picture which
emerges is one of the overthrow of incumbent
governments, the breaking down of established
political affiliations and the emergence of new
political actors, primarily anti-politics, far right
and racist parties.
The issue opens with an overview
article - Electoral
Epidemic: The Political Cost of Economic Crisis in
Southern Europe, 2010–11
- by Anna Bosco and
Susannah Verney, presenting the electoral trends
which emerged across the region as a whole during
the two years 2010-11.
