      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.
