Abstract

V sodobnem svetu populizem vedno bolj postaja del mednarodne politične scene. Zlasti populistična radikalna desnica (PRR) in njen evroskeptični diskurz v Evropski uniji (EU) sta močno okrepila. V okviru procesa regionalne integracije lahko krize (kriza evra - migracijska kriza - kriza Covid-19) označimo kot prelomnice, ki lahko omajajo status quo. Dvorazsežnostna študija primera, v kateri uporabljam tako poglobljeno analizo vsebine kot kritično analizo diskurza, je uporabljena za analizo ukrepov obeh strani v treh kriznih situacijah. Nizozemska stranka PRR Partij voor de Vrijheid (Stranka za svobodo) je uporabljena za analizo notranje perspektive, odzivi evropskih institucij pa za zunanjo. Magistrska naloga pokaže, kako PRR manipulira s sistemskimi značilnostmi, kot sta kulturna ločnica in transnacionalni razkol v EU, da oblikuje svoje sporočilo v imenu ljudi'. Po drugi strani pa tudi evropske institucije uporabljajo igro identitete za oslabitev priljubljenosti PRR. Obe strani tako vplivata druga na drugo, evropske institucije in države članice poskušajo v kriznih razmerah PRR postaviti na stran, PRR pa zaradi teh ukrepov radikalizira svoje stališče do EU. Še več, PRR uporablja svoj univerzalistični diskurzivni pristop kot kotradiskurz, da bi se legitimizirala kot demokratični dejavnik proti uveljavljeni eliti v mednarodnim skupnosti. Študija tako potrjuje, da je populizem mogoče razumeti kot razločen diskurz v mednarodnih odnosih.

Secondary title:	Populism as a discourse in international relations
Secondary abstract:	In the contemporary global world populism is increasingly becoming part of the international political scene. Especially, the populist radical right (PRR) and their Eurosceptic discourse in the European Union (EU) have made significant gains over the years. But how is regional integration adapting towards the rising form of right-wing populism and their foreign policies? And vice-versa what systemic characteristics are used by the PPR to alter the regional integration process? A two dimensional case study, where I use both in-depth content analysis as well as critical discourse analysis, is employed to analyse actions taken by two sides during the three major European crises situations(euro crisis - migration crisis - Covid-19 crisis). The Dutch PRR party Partij voor de Vrijheid (Party for Freedom) is used to analyse the inside-out perspective and responses from European institutions are taken from an outside-in perspective. The thesis demonstrates that systemic characteristics on the one hand, like the cultural divide and the transnational cleavage of the EU are conveniently manipulated by the PRR to construct its message around the representational claim of the "people". On the other hand, the European institutions also use the identity game to weaken the PRRʼs popularity. Both parties are thus influenced by each other, with European institutions and member states trying to side-line the PRR in times of crises, and the PRR radicalising its stance on the EU as a result of this diversion. Furthermore, the PRR utilises its own universalist discursive approach as a counter-discourse, to justify itself as the democratising factor against the established elite in the international community. Therefore, this study confirms that populism can be perceived as being a distinct discourse in international relations.
