From Competition to Polarization in Central Europe: How Populists Change Party Systems and the European Union
Abstract
Political competition in some member states of the European Union has shifted to issues of identity as populist parties take positions defending “the people.” This symposium contribution sketches how polarization goes hand in hand with democratic backsliding in Hungary and Poland, how a somewhat different dynamic is playing out in the Czech Republic, and how ruling populists in all three states treat the European Union and Russia. It concludes by considering the consequences of this populist and illiberal turn for the European Union’s power and for democratization in the Western Balkans.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
