[Daniel F. Wajner @WajnerD]

Are you surprised by the huge proliferation of articles in International Relations journals about #populism and #populist leaderships & how they affect int'l politics? You may be drawn to this trend, or tired of it, but you can't deny it 👇: there is a “populist turn” in IR!🧵1/5

[Daniel F. Wajner @WajnerD]

Looking forward to speaking tomorrow at @IBEI!

If you are in Barcelona and interested in geopolitical shifts, populist polarization, and fragmentation trends shaping EU–Latin America relations and beyond, feel free to join us.

Convocatoria a articulos sobre populismo, política exterior, y seguridad.

Events in #Venezuela cannot be understood in isolation.

In this ISA webinar, I discussed:
• How this moment fits into a 12+ year crisis.
• The geopolitics behind U.S. actions & int'l legitimation.
• Latin America in MAGA’s “Golden Age”.

And for an earlier post explaining the struggles in #Venezuela since the 2024 elections, see here 👇

[Daniel F. Wajner @WajnerD]

#Venezuela's fate is at stake right now: will it emerge from the institutional crisis that Chavismo-Madurismo has imposed on it for the last 25 years? Or will it destroy the few remaining democratic elements? The KEY is not only if the regime will accept its electoral defeat...🧵

[Daniel F. Wajner @WajnerD]

The “Battle” for #Venezuela didn’t begin today. It follows a decade-long struggle over the legitimacy of the Chavista–Madurista regime, with multiple international actors involved.

For background on this round and why earlier ones failed, see my paper ⬇️

"...כל אלה מחייבים את ישראל לשאול אם השעה כשרה להתנהלות מדינית-דיפלומטית אחרת מול אירופה; לדיאלוג יותר חיובי ופחות לעומתי; לבחינת האינטרסים המשותפים; וליצירת ברית אסטרטגית חדשה..."
מאמר מעולה של @pardosharon, הילה ז. ורוני ל. על יחסי ישראל-אירופה. מומלץ!

My piece proposing a typology of populist regionalism has finally found a home!
Published in the Journal of European Integration (47, 8), it examines how populists manage regional integration once in power, identifying four distinct pathways.

🚨New article out in @JEI_Publication!
How do populists manage regional integration once in power?
Are they always anti-regionalist? Or is the picture more complex?
This study explores the many faces of Populist Regionalism in Europe & Latin America👇
