Re-fashioned Socio-Cultural Frames: The Populist Radical Right and Russian Influence in Post-Soviet EU Spaces

摘要本项目是一个比较案例研究，探讨框架弹性在后苏联欧盟空间。具体而言，它探讨了后苏联空间的民粹主义激进右翼政党（PRRPPS）通过其社会文化框架实践正在构建的现实是否正在改变与俄罗斯相关的地缘政治冲击。这一点很重要，因为它在文化和地缘政治之间画出了一条统一的切线，使民粹主义的两个组成部分保持一致，而这两个组成部分在文献中没有联系起来。这个项目提供了一个追踪框架演变的经验案例，展示了框架选择如何被一个复杂的、环环相扣的历史和社会背景网络所限制，并探讨了PRRPPS如何适应这种背景“行李”。“具体而言，这涉及评估这些遗产是否支持或阻碍PRRPPS可以合法构建的现实;在审查这是否转化为特定的框架或框架包之前，屈服于修改或放弃的压力。该项目提出了核心研究问题“后苏联欧盟空间的民粹主义激进右翼政党（PRRPPS）如何构建传统的社会文化政策，以及这些框架在多大程度上被修改或放弃以应对地缘政治冲击？”“接下来是三个分问题：RQ 1：PRRPPS如何制定一个努力保护文化遗产和传统价值观的社会文化方案？这些框架在多大程度上依赖于地缘政治遗产和/或历史先例，以唤起积极或消极的俄罗斯（苏联）内涵？和RQ 3：在何种程度上，以何种方式，有俄罗斯相关的地缘政治冲击影响的内容，风格，或强调PRRPPS框架的做法？通过系统地依次回答每一个问题，本项目提供了经验证据，解释了PRRPPS何时以及在何种情况下继续使用特定框架;进行轻微修改;或者由于压倒性的证据表明它不再适合决定完全放弃框架。案例选择与集中最近地缘政治不稳定的主题主线一致，实证案例的选择是基于他们对俄罗斯的态度差异很大。因此，选择了以下案例：青民盟，他们务实地亲俄;法律与正义党，他们口头上反俄;最后，EKRE，他们在某种程度上修改了他们传统的反俄罗斯民族的做法。这种情况下选择坚持最相似的系统设计，从而使本项目能够调查什么配置的“俄罗斯行李”是最有问题的。方法本项目采用解释性的顺序方法，结合了初级和次级研究实践。具体来说，这包括（批评）话语分析的变化，和多模态话语分析（图像，视频等）。分析民粹主义激进右翼撰写或广播的政治话语。然后通过一系列面对面的半结构化精英面试来丰富这一点，这些面试旨在招募匈牙利，波兰和爱沙尼亚东道国内的政治家，学者，记者和政治战略家。这项海外实地考察将提供身临其境的见解，并从与参与者的面对面互动中受益，旨在三角测量理解并揭示无法通过二级研究获得的隐藏压力。ContributionsThis项目有助于理论上从事文学民粹主义，框架和怀旧;概念上统一的文化和地缘政治的民粹主义的组成部分;和经验上提供了一个框架演变的详细说明，通过精英访谈收集原始数据，并包括爱沙尼亚，作为一个欠研究的情况下，在民粹主义研究。

Abstract This project is a comparative case study which investigates frame resilience in post-soviet EU spaces. Specifically, it explores whether the reality that Populist Radical Right Parties in Post-Soviet spaces (PRRPPS) are constructing, via their socio-cultural framing practices, is changing in relation to Russian-related geo-political shocks. This is important as it draws a unifying tangent between culture and geo-politics, aligning two components of populism which the literature has failed to associate.Providing an empirical case which traces frame evolution, this project demonstrates how framing choices are curtailed by a complex and interlocking web of historical and social contexts and explores how PRRPPS accommodate this contextual "baggage." Specifically, this relates to assessing whether these legacies either support or stunt the reality PRRPPS can legitimately construct; before examining whether this translates into particular frames, or framing packages, succumbing to modification or abandonment pressures. Research QuestionsThis project asks the core research question 'How do Populist Radical Right Parties in Post-Soviet EU spaces (PRRPPS) frame traditional socio-cultural policies, and to what extent have these frames been modified or abandoned in response to geo-political shocks?'Followed by three sub-questions:RQ1:How do PRRPPS frame a socio-cultural program which strives to preserve cultural heritage and traditional values? RQ2:To what extent do these frames rely on geo-political legacies and/or historical precedents in order to evoke either a positive or negative Russian (Soviet) connotation? and RQ3:To what extent, and in what ways, have Russian-related geo-political shocks affected the content, style, or emphasis of PRRPPS framing practices?By systematically answering each in turn, this project provides empirical evidence which explains when, and under what circumstances, PRRPPS continue to use a specific frame; engage in light modification; or, due to overwhelming evidence that it is no longer suitable decide to abandon the frame altogether. Case Selection In line with this thematic thread of centralising recent geo-political instability, empirical cases are selected on the basis that their portrayed attitude towards Russia diverges substantially. Accordingly, the following cases are selected: Fidesz, who are pragmatically pro-Russian; PiS, who are vocally anti-Russian; and finally, EKRE, who have somewhat revised their traditionally anti-ethnic Russian approach. This case selection adheres to a most-similar systems design and thereby enables this project to investigate what configurations of "Russian baggage" are the most problematic. Methodology This project adopts an explanatory, sequential approach, which combines primary and secondary research practices. Specifically, this incorporates a variation of (critical) discourse analysis, and multimodal discourse analysis (imagery, videos etc.) to analyse political discourse authored or broadcast by the Populist Radical Right. This is then enriched by a series of face-to-face semi-structure elite interviews which will aim to recruit Politicians, Academics, Journalist and Political strategists within the host countries of Hungary, Poland and Estonia. This overseas fieldwork, which will provide immersive insights and benefit from face-to-face interaction with participants, is designed to triangulate understanding and reveal hidden pressures that cannot be obtained via secondary research. ContributionsThis project contributes theoretically by engaging in the literature on populism, framing and nostalgia; conceptually by unifying the cultural and geo-political components of populism; and empirically by providing a detailed account of frame evolution, collecting original data via elite interviews, and including Estonia, as an understudied case in Populist research.
