SUMMARY:Jiajia Zhou (University of Toronto)\, "Clarifying the Threat of Populism: Place and Party Organizational Strength"
DESCRIPTION:U.S. ET: February 1 (Thursday)\, 8 – 9 PM \nJST: February 2 (Friday)\, 10 – 11 AM \nZoom Registration: Link \nPaper is available here. \nAuthor: Jiajia Zhou (University of Toronto) \nAbstract:\nIn this paper\, I investigate the relationship between party organizational strength and populist electoral success. I attempt to bridge the gap between micro-level theories of politician strategy and voter demands and macro-level theories of crisis and globalization through an understanding of local party strength and support for populism. I test my hypotheses by examining within-country variation in Japan. I utilize measures for party organizational strength and party-voter linkages in a municipal-level panel dataset that spans more than 1\,000 municipalities and six lower house elections from 2000 to 2014\, two of which occurred during the leadership of an anti-elite populist maverick in Japan’s dominant party. This paper contributes to literature on place-related determinants of populist support and questions existing views of the populist threat as uniquely tied to a particular ideology or the challenges of globalization. More broadly\, the paper aims to bring clarity to questions of a phenomenon that may involve both genuine pursuits of stronger representation and potential threats to democratic stability. \nPresenter: Jiajia Zhou (University of Toronto) \nDiscussants: Paul Kenny (Australian Catholic University) and Charles McClean (Yale University) \nChair: Amy Catalinac (New York University)
