    Democracia-autoritarismo como eje de fractura de los sistemas de partidos en América Latina
    (Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Ediciones Complutense, 2026-04-22) Martínez Hernández, Aldo Adrián; Miranda Olivares, Nicolás; Sendra, Mariana
    The research aims to determine whether the democracy-authoritarianism axis has been present in the Latin American political systems from their democratic transition processes. As specific objectives, it is intended to answer three questions: Do left-wing parties place greater relevance on the democratic issue than right-wing parties? do the relevance and positions of parties change as time has elapsed since democratic return? Are the structural conditions of the party system and democratic consolidation a determining factor in this axis of fracture of electoral competition? To do this, the database of electoral programs offered by Manifesto Project -MARPOR- is used. The research concludes that the axis of democracy-authoritarianism competition has remained as an axis of structuring the Latin American party systems, entrenching left-wing parties towards greater democratic openness and right-wing parties in favor of the statu quo, which relates to the democracy consolidation in the region.

    Everything for the people, but trust?: exploring the link between populist attitudes and social trust in Italy, Portugal, and Spain
    (John Wiley and Sons Inc, 2024) Marcos Marné, Hugo; Sendra, Mariana
    While it is largely unquestioned that populist individuals are more likely to distrust politics and politicians, the empirical association between populist attitudes and social trust is far less clear. In principle, the people-centrist component of populism could trigger higher levels of social trust among individuals with stronger populist attitudes. Empirically, however, the relationship seems more complex and could be influenced by the boundaries of the group identified as ‘the people’. This paper examines this association using data from three South European countries: Italy, Portugal, and Spain. The main results show that stronger populist attitudes correlate with lower levels of generalized social trust but with higher levels of trust towards the group identified with ‘the people’. These results underline the conceptual consistence of populist attitudes and help to theorize about the effects of widespread populist attitudes.

    Is Milei a populist? People and market in the new radical right in Argentina
    (Taylor & Francis, 2024-02-05) Sendra, Mariana; Marcos Marné, Hugo
    The electoral rise of Milei, that brought him up to the presidency of Argentina in 2023, has run in parallel with discussions about his use of populist ideas. Overall, Milei is characterised by his emphasis on economic issues, with an extreme pro-market position based on the Austrian school, but he also stands out for a strong anti-establishment discourse. While observers may consider these appeals as populist, a categorisation based on just this feature could be premature given the multidimensional nature of populism. This article tests the importance of populism in the discourse of Milei displaying an empirical strategy based on the holistic grading of key political discourses. Main results indicate that Milei’s discourse is partially populist because it lacks a people-centred vision, even one anchored in market rationality. We expect these results will facilitate comparisons of the Argentinian case with other Latin-American cases in which populism and neoliberalism seem to be mutually reinforcing.
