    Personalization of Political Newspaper Coverage: a Longitudinal Study in the Dutch Context Since 1950

    Personalization of political newspaper coverage: a longitudinal study in the Dutch context since 1950 Ellis Aizenberg, Wouter van Atteveldt, Chantal van Son, Franz-Xaver Geiger VU University, Amsterdam This study analyses whether personalization in Dutch political newspaper coverage has increased since 1950. In spite of the assumption that personalization increased over time in The Netherlands, earlier studies on this phenomenon in the Dutch context led to a scattered image. Through automatic and manual content analyses and regression analyses this study shows that personalization did increase in The Netherlands during the last century, the changes toward that increase however, occurred earlier on than expected at first. This study also shows that the focus of reporting on politics is increasingly put on the politician as an individual, the coverage in which these politicians are mentioned however became more substantive and politically relevant. Keywords: Personalization, content analysis, political news coverage, individualization, privatization Introduction When personalization occurs a focus is put on politicians and party leaders as individuals. The context of the news coverage in which they are mentioned becomes more private as their love lives, upbringing, hobbies and characteristics of personal nature seem increasingly thoroughly discussed. An article published in 1984 in the Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf forms a good example here, where a horse race betting event, which is attended by several ministers accompanied by their wives and girlfriends is carefully discussed1. Nowadays personalization is a much-discussed phenomenon in the field of political communication. It can simply be seen as: ‘a process in which the political weight of the individual actor in the political process increases 1 Ererondje (17 juli 1984).

  • The State of the Right: the Netherlands

    The State of the Right: the Netherlands

    March 2011 THE STATE OF THE RIGHT: THE NETHERLANDS www.fondapol.org Niek PAS www.fondapol.org THE STATE OF THE RIGHT: THE NETHERLANDS Niek PAS The Fondation pour l’innovation politique is a liberal, progressive and European Think tank President: Nicolas Bazire Vice-president: Charles Beigbeder Chief Executive Officer: Dominique Reynié [email protected] SUMMARY Its diversity is what most characterises the Dutch right: it spans Christian democrats (Christian Democratic Appeal, CDA) and liberals (People’s Party for Freedom and Democracy, VVD), as well as populist parties, whose strength is quite unprecedented in Europe. Populist parties have increased their support significantly since the early 2000s. They have enjoyed real success, thanks in particular to Pim Fortuyn, whose pro- vocative style boosted their popularity before his assassination in May 2002. The radical and populist right is now embodied by Geert Wilders’s Party for Freedom (PVV). Founded in 2006, the PVV’s orientation is more nationalistic and less liberal than that of the Pim Fortuyn List; it is vehement in its opposition to Islam and immigration. The Netherlands also has many smaller political movements, including agrarian, natio- nalist and far-right parties. All these parties have relays in the media, both in the press and on the internet, and their ideas are formalised and disseminated by a variety of think tanks and journals. Despite this fragmentation, the Dutch right presents a united ideological front on many issues: with the exception of the Christian democrats, it is generally Eurosceptic and favours strengthening the nation, at a time when the country’s openness to the world is perceived as a threat rather than an opportunity.

    EU ELECTIONS Factsheet: Meps That Voted for NATURE in the COMMON FISHERIES POLICY

    EU ELECTIONS Factsheet: MEPs that voted FOR NATURE in the COMMON FISHERIES POLICY TECHNICAL CONSERVATION MEASURES (TCM) REGULATION INFO In 2016, the European Commission made a proposal to establish new fishing rules in europe. These rules range from the mesh size of the net to to limit fishers from catching baby fish, to temporal closures to limit the impact of fishing on marine ecosystems (such as when seabirds are bycaught). On 16th January 2018, the European parliament voted on this file. Below we provide voting information on 4 key amendments that provide indication whether Members of the European voted for strengthening of the protection of marine ecosystems or on the contrary.

Vote on AM 83 (Approved 358 in favour, 314 against, 5 abstained) This amendment changed the definition of driftnets to allow for semi-driftneting (when there is an anchor attached to the bottom of the net). Semi-driftnets are a major problem for the marine environment and by changing this definition, it doesn’t ban them from being used in particular in the Baltic and Mediterranean. Many marine species are bycaught in driftnets, including semi-driftnets. MEPs who voted in favour (+) of this amendment voted for the dilution of the definition and hence supported for increased number of marine species to drown in fishing gear (driftnets). 2. Vote on AM 295 (Not approved 175 in favour, 454 against, 43 abstained) This amendment set a quantifiable target that within 5 years, the bycatch of juvenile fish would be reduced by 50%.

    Reader Studiereis Brussel GLB – POP

    Reader Studiereis Brussel GLB – POP U doet mee aan onze studiereis ! Met de “European Week of the Regions & Cities” zitten we in een drukke en bijzondere week. Maar ook om andere redenen : op 12 oktober opent in Nederland de “Dutch Agri Food Week”; 12 – 25 oktober. In Brussel vindt op 12 en 13 oktober ook de conferentie “Food 2030” plaats. En op 16 oktober is het “Wereldvoedseldag”. Landbouw, klimaat, omgeving, voeding en gezondheid zijn uitermate actuele, belangrijke en vooral verweven thema’s. Uw expertise is hard nodig. Wat is het onderwerp van onze studiebijeenkomst ? Natuurlijk de relatie van het EU Gemeenschappelijk Landbouwbeleid met de praktijk in de regio. Het gaat ons om kennis opdoen, delen en inzetten. “Wie in Brussel niet aan tafel zit, staat op het menu”, is in deze context een toepasselijke quote. Provincies zijn gewend vanuit verschillende disciplines mee te denken over POP, maar goede interactie tussen popcoördinatoren, beleidsmakers en lobbyisten van zowel Europa, rijk en regio is nog beperkt. Werk aan de winkel. De workshops We gaan niet alleen luisteren, maar we hebben ook twee momenten gereserveerd om als groep zelf inbreng vorm te geven. U mag zich hierop voorbereiden door uzelf de vraag te stellen wat volgens u de beste manier is om het Plattelandsbudget in te zetten. De middelen zijn meer dan gemakkelijk te besteden aan het beheer van onze groene en blauwe waarden en aan versnelde innovatie, modernisering en structuurversterking. Daarvoor is het POP eigenlijk al te klein. Maar wat moet nu gerealiseerd worden om grip op de zaak te krijgen? Welke investeringen, maatregelen of spelregels zijn nodig, misschien wel gezamenlijk, voor duurzame landbouw in de ruimste zin van het woord? Hoogwaardige mestfabrieken? Aardwarmterotondes? Een landelijke korte keten coöperatie ? Voedsel- en kookles op school ? Zelfproducerende consumenten? Een verplichte voedselstrategie voor gemeenten? En hoe pakken we dat aan? Waar halen we de kennis? Welke rol heeft overheid dan? Laat uw verbeelding de vrije loop.
