Los partidos populistas suelen erigirse en guardianes de la ética pública. Pero ¿qué ocurre con ese discurso cuando gobiernan? En esta pieza, en @agendapublica.es, analizamos cómo evolucionan las denuncias éticas de los populistas en el Parlamento Europeo: agendapublica.es/noticia/2128...

Cuando el populismo pasa de denunciar el poder a ejercerlo
Los partidos populistas tienen formas distintas de entender y fiscalizar el poder cuando forman parte del gobierno. Cristina Ares, profesora titular de Ciencia Política en la Universidade de Santiago ...

🇪🇺 Do populist MEPs walk their anti-corruption talk? @nuriafontb.bsky.social & @cristinaarescc.bsky.social: populist MEPs ask more ethics questions in opposition but not once their party governs. Mainstream MEPs barely move in comparison. Anti-elitism cools fast in office. 🔗 doi.org/10.1080/0140...
First page of "Populism in the EU and the trade-off between ethical claiming and mainstreaming" by Nuria Font and Cristina Ares, published online first in West European Politics.
Horizontal bar chart titled "Ethical questions, by actors targeted and categories (%)". The article reports that ethical questions about EU targets are dominated by conflicts of interest, while questions about national and international targets are dominated by corruption.
Two-panel point-and-CI plot titled "Marginal effects of national government on ethical questioning, by populism: EU-level targets". The article reports that populist MEPs ask about 1.2 EU-targeted ethics questions when their party is in opposition but only about 0.1 once their party governs; mainstream MEPs (left panel) ask comparatively few in either condition.

Del Qatargate al caso Huawei: ¿Cómo responden los eurodiputados a los escándalos de corrupción?
Escándalos recientes como el Qatargate, el caso Huawei o la condena a Marine Le Pen han sacudido al Parlamento Europeo y acelerado reformas en materia de transparencia. Un nuevo estudio de las investigadoras Nuria Font y Cristina Ares examina cómo influyen la tradición democrática de los países de origen y la pertenencia a partidos populistas en las actitudes de los eurodiputados hacia la rendición de cuentas, revelando tensiones profundas entre culturas políticas y exigencias institucionales.
