HARRIS University of New Hampshire May 2018 Department of Communication 1 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The research and writing of this paper has been an exciting and enjoyable process, in large part due to the people who made it possible. First and foremost I would like to thank my faculty mentor, Professor Michael Soha, for bringing his guidance and wealth of knowledge, not to mention enthusiasm, to this process. The idea for this project first came about in Professor Soha’s Spring 2016 Media and Politics course and he has been an avid supporter ever since. I would not have been able to explore the topic in so much depth without the generous support of a Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship from the Hamel Center from Undergraduate Research. This opportunity was made possible through the generous donations of Mr. Dana Hamel and Dr. Adrian Kerrison, in addition to funding from the Grand Challenges for the Liberal Arts Initiative. I am proud to present my work as a testament to the power of the humanities in examining and offering solutions for society’s pressing issues. The interdisciplinary nature of my project would not have been possible without the support of the fantastic professors in the Communication and Spanish departments, where I was fortunate to have the opportunity to hone my interests and expand my knowledge of many of the topics explored in this paper. Finally, I would like to express my gratitude to my family and friends, whose encouragement and support has been of utmost importance during the course of this project. 2 ABSTRACT AN AMERICAN HUGO CHÁVEZ? INVESTIGATING THE COMPARISONS BETWEEN DONALD TRUMP AND LATIN AMERICAN POPULISTS CHARLOTTE B. HARRIS, B.A., UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE Advised by: Professor Michael Soha Following the 2016 presidential election of populist outsider Donald Trump, several think pieces throughout the popular press conjectured a comparison between Trump and former Venezuelan president Hugo Chávez. Citing their populist rhetoric, brash and coarse sense of humor, and shared propensity for fiery tirades against the press, these articles made foreboding predictions about the status of American democracy. However, these short and sometimes anecdotally-based opinion pieces failed to acknowledge several important differences between Trump and Latin American populists like Chávez. This paper will address this gap in understanding by evaluating the comparison from an academic perspective. Through in-depth case studies of the political and social contexts of Donald Trump, Hugo Chávez, and another Latin American populist, Rafael Correa, the paper will consider the veracity and implications of a comparison among the leaders. Furthermore, the paper will explore how these comparisons inform the intersection of government, media, and democracy. 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS Acknowledgements 2 Abstract 3 Introduction 5 I – “America’s Hugo Chávez”: Musings from the Op-Ed Column 8 II – Identifying “The Press” 12 III – Defining Populism 14 IV – Populism in Latin America 20 V – Hugo Chávez 23 VI – Rafael Correa 26 VII – Donald Trump 30 VIII – Populists and Media 35 IX – The Role of the Media in Democracy 48 V – The Implications of Populism for Democracy 50 VI – Examining the Validity of Trump-Chávez Comparisons 55 References 57 4 Introduction “America’s Hugo Chávez.” “A Peronist on the Potomac.” “Pinochet. Chávez. Trump?” “Presidente Trump.” “El Donaldo.” These were just some of the headlines from various major news outlets in the months surrounding Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential victory, which seemed to suggest that Trump was America’s answer to a trend of Latin American strongmen with populist rhetoric and authoritarian tendencies. The comparisons attempted to offer an explanation for the great success and electoral victory of Trump, a celebrity businessman who had risen to political prominence in 2011 by questioning the veracity of then-President Obama’s birth certificate. It was a trajectory that perplexed many, particularly those with whom Trump’s message didn’t resonate. The comparison to Latin American populism was one possible explanation. The idea came from Latin Americans themselves, by foreign correspondent journalists, and also, of course, by those with no real grasp on Latin America’s political realities. As such, the articles ranged from sweeping, baseless generalizations about the often misunderstood region and its complex political trends to actually useful, informed arguments about the nature of the similarities. On the surface level, the comparisons seemed to have at least some merit: both Chávez and Trump were undeniably populist, appealing to an aggrieved base of “the people” and promising to wrest power from the corrupt elite and restore it to the rightful citizens. They were also similar in that they positioned themselves as the sole arbiters of this restoration of justice. Their behavioral conduct, too, was case for comparison. Trump’s rejection of conventional presidential etiquette likens him more to charismatic but crass Latin American strongmen than it 5 does to the mostly demure and carefully curated performances of recent American presidents. The most distinctive similarity, however, may be the simultaneous use and abuse of communication channels, a technique perfected by the Latin American populist. TV-friendly antics paired with rages against the very networks that gave him a mouthpiece; Twitter rampages that read like a disorganized stream of consciousness – these were all hallmarks of Latin American populists long before Trump ever came along. Still, these comparisons between Trump and Latin American populist leaders may obscure more than they enlighten. When it comes to presidents with such completely distinct political ideologies (Trump is a right-wing nationalist, whereas Chávez marries nationalist rhetoric with socialist economics), not to mention drastically different political contexts, equating them on the basis of some outward comparisons can hardly be considered careful, thorough research. And some of the articles’ foreboding warnings that the U.S. will imminently dissolve into economic chaos and political ruin like Venezuela did following Chávez’s leadership, is simply unsubstantiated fear-mongering and a sure conflation of association with causation. The most useful result of these comparisons, rather than assuming that the outcome of authoritarian leaders in Latin America will also happen here in the U.S., may be that they force us to confront the limits of our own democratic structures and consider the potential threats of a leader who reads more like a foreign strongman populist than a tame establishment politician as usual. This paper will address this missing academic perspective in the comparisons between Donald Trump and Hugo Chávez by analyzing the comparison from a scholarly standpoint. The 6 comparison between Trump and Chávez will be supplemented by considering another, more contemporary Latin American populist figure, Rafael Correa of Ecuador. In particular, this discussion between the similarities of Trump and Latin American populists will center on the common adversarial relationship with the media that each has cultivated. The discussion will begin by establishing a broad theoretical basis to build from. The paper will explore definitions of “the press,” summarize arguments on the role of the press in a democracy, describe the normative relationships between the media and the president and understand how deviations from this norm affect the efficacy of the political system. From there, the paper will apply this general concepts to specific case studies. The political and socioeconomic context of Venezuela and Ecuador helps to illustrate the rise of Hugo Chávez and Rafael Correa, respectively, to political prominence and the potency of his message. The paper will examine Chávez and Correa’s actions once in power, particularly in terms of their relationship with the media. Next, the paper will discuss the various factors that played into the success of Donald Trump in the 2016 American presidential election. Trump’s attitudes towards the media will be compared with those of Chávez and Correa. The paper will

One is angry when struggling with financial insecurity due to unemployment or low income; economists analyse this phenomenon. Another one is angry because of the mediocrity of those in power; political scientists explore this matter. The media, whose task is to bring the above to public attention, also become instruments that shape events and they aspire or even engage in exercising power. Thus, I shift the focus to society and its culture as sources of anger and, at the same time, areas where we may appease anger (Mishra, 2017; Sloterdijk, 2011). People often tap into the power of identity and difference as a resource. I do not assume that culture prevails, but society needs to take it into account if it is to understand itself and change any distressing aspects of reality.

  • Parties of Power and the Success of the President's Reform Agenda In
    10.1177/003232902237826POLITICSREGINA SMYTH & SOCIETY Building State Capacity from the Inside Out: Parties of Power and the Success of the President’s Reform Agenda in Russia REGINA SMYTH In contrast to his predecessor Boris Yeltsin, Russia’s President Vladimir Putin con- tinues to successfully neutralize legislative opposition and push his reform agenda through the State Duma. His success is due in large part to the transformation of the party system during the 1999 electoral cycle. In the face of a less polarized and frag- mented party system, the Kremlin-backed party of power,Unity, became the founda- tion for a stable majority coalition in parliament and a weapon in the political battle to eliminate threatening opponents such as Yuri Luzhkov’s Fatherland–All Russia and the Communist Party of the Russian Federation. Political transitions under presidential regimes are prone to deadlock between the parliament and the executive that can stymie reform efforts and even lead to a breakdown in nascent democracies.1 I argue that a centrist state party (an organi- zation formed by state actors to mobilize budgetary resources to contest parlia- mentary elections) operating within a nonpolarized party system can serve as a mechanism to overcome parliamentary-presidential deadlock. I support this argu- ment using data on the electoral strategies and governing success of the first three post-Communist administrations in the Russian Federation. In doing so, this study underscores how a mixed electoral system (i.e., deputies simultaneously Funding for this work was provided by the National Science Foundation and the National Council for Eurasian Studies.

  • The Time of Buen Vivir in Chile: Power Returns to Its Legitimate Owners
    The time of Buen Vivir in Chile: power returns to its legitimate owners The results of Chile’s elections for the Constitutional Convention marked a breaking point in the country’s history. At the same time as the particracy is demolished and the political class defeated, the epicenter of decision-making finds its way back to the people. Right now, indigenous and Chilean men and women must unite to reach Kume Mongen, and thus allow for a diverse coexistence under conditions of greater equity and an unconditional respect for Mother Earth. By Diego Ancalao Gavilán - 1st of June, 2021 After the social outburst of 2019, many remained in a state of total shock. The traditional political system believed, under a sort of infantile ingenuity, that this would only amount to a bad dream, and that sooner rather than later, they would gain back control over a space that they felt belonged to them by right. However, events have unfolded under a stubborn consistency, and the codes that allowed for an anticipatory interpretation of events are no longer functioning. The facts have placed the political class, which was until now dominant, in the place that they have earned themselves with merit: that of complete irrelevance. As Pope Francis reminds us in his apostolic exhortation, Evangelio Gaudium, under the current times, one must assume that to have an impact on the adequate development of social coexistence, and on the building of a people in which differences are harmonized by a common project, one must understand that “reality is superior to the idea”.

The record of the last twenty years shows that most of the expectations about the Second Republic have been turned into nightmares. Rather than a two party system reproducing the Westminster model, the land of Machiavelli – and Guicciardini – has nurtured two highly fragmented coalitions, which have, in the latest national elections, been outplayed by a third pole, the protest movement of Beppe Grillo. The result is a tri-polar system, where a parliamentary majority can only be obtained by pulling together two bitterly antagonistic parties, with very little, if any, governmental stability.

Analysis of the pre-1989 situation Under Communist Party leader Todor Zhivkov, who was in power from 1956 until the fall of the regime in 1989, Bulgaria combined formal allegiance to the Soviet Union with a specific nationally oriented policy in which the attempt to accommodate the intellectual elite played a significant part. It conducted a carrot-and-stick policy, allowing certain freedoms and deviations from the official communist ideology. This explains why some sciences initially labeled “bourgeois”, such as sociology and political science, were able in the 1970s and 1980s to find their way in the scientific community and even to institutionalize themselves, especially in Bulgaria’s major university, the University of Sofia (now the St.

  • Phillipe & Jorge’S Cool, Cool World: Screwing
    Phillipe & Jorge’s Cool, Cool World: Rallies, 38 Studios and Civil Disobedience Making America Grate Your superior correspondents have watched far too many presidential debates this year. We have known all along that we would be voting Democratic (whether Bernie or Hillary), but can tell you, without hesitation, that we both support and will be voting for Bernie Sanders in the upcoming RI primary. The difference in the tone and tenor of the debates, from Republican to Democrat, are striking. The Democrats have stuck to issues and, while spirited and at times a bit snarky, Hillary and Bernie have been acting like real candidates in an adult election. The same cannot be said of the Republicans. Apparently Boobio has decided that acting like Trump Junior is not working for him but he is pretty much finished anyway. Kasich has done his best to keep things civil, while canny (but totally off the rails) Cruz has been pretty consistent in his loony vision of America. And Trump, who continues to win delegates and most of the primaries, is someone who is so ridiculous as to be beneath contempt. Can you imagine Abraham Lincoln setting out a table of “Lincoln Logs” during a press briefing in the way that Trump displayed his bad steaks, wine and water at one of his a few weeks back? Fist fights at his rallies should tell you all you need to know about how Trump plans to “bring us together.” The truly depressing part of his spectacle of a campaign is that so many people continue to vote for this.
