Hoy traemos un post de rabiosa actualidad. @lluisorriols.bsky.social hace una radiografía del trasvase de un millón de votos que se estaría produciendo entre el Partido Popular y VOX.

Un millón de votos

La política en España se desplaza de lo económico a lo cultural, y el futuro del PP dependerá de si logra dar una respuesta propia o queda subordinado a la agenda de Vox

“An effective strategy would combine legal, institutional, and civil resistance methods to advance the pro-democratic agenda. It would spell out a positive and optimistic vision for the country, rather than a defensive strategy.”

The Nature of Our Power: A Conversation with political scientist Erica Chenoweth
By Rebecca Solnit • 8 Feb 2025
View in browser

"The best study on the subject in my opinion suggests that in the long term, institutions really can’t save us; that civil society and mass mobilization are a more potent check on a backsliding democracy in the long term than relying on institutional checks and balances alone." That's what political scientist Erica Chenoweth told me when I asked them if we could have a conversation (by email, below in full) about the current constitutional crisis/coup attempt and what we can do about it. Chenoweth is a hugely influential scholar of nonviolent social change, best known for their empirical research that not only documents what makes civil resistance work but demonstrates that it works, often extremely effectively. They direct the Nonviolent Action Lab, which studies how people have built movements and developed strategies to resist authoritarianism successfully and documents how nonviolence can be effective. There's no one I wanted to hear from more in this constitutional crisis, and I'm grateful I can share their insights with all of you.
