“…Literature on this topic is concerned with the effects of neoliberal globalisation that may eventually trigger a leftist nationalist reaction and a transformation of the left (Conversi, 2020). There is a specific focus on how this reaction is manifested at the regional level, with literature on ethno‐regionalist parties or left‐wing nationalism restricted to specific regions (Beramendi & Nuñez Seixas, 1996; Erk, 2010; Jones, 2017). Furthermore, the apparent nationalist calls by Latin American political leaders from pink tide governments also inspired studies regarding left‐wing nationalism in this region (see De la Torre, 2017; Weyland, 1996).…”

Are populism and nationalism two inseparable dimensions? The controversial argument is that both exclusionary and inclusionary populism draw on nationalist representations and traditions to construct their political discourse. In the case of Podemos, several scholars have argued that this party presents a nationalistic character based on its invocation of the ‘patria’ and a demarcated, imagined political community. This article relies on an original data set in order to test this hypothesis related to Podemos's supply and demand. With regard to supply, we explore four party manifestos to elucidate how Podemos refers to the nation, Spanish identity, sovereignty and immigration. To evaluate demand, we analyse the party's supporters' political attitudes and values regarding the nation, assimilation of immigrants and national preferentialism. Our results show that Podemos's supporters express lower levels of national identification than the remainder of the population. Similarly, the former analysis reveals a pro‐immigration position and a tendency of the party Podemos to avoid issues related to national identity. Departing from these results, we draw several implications on the use of nationalism for the categorisation of political parties and, in particular, left‐wing populism.

“…Since the early 1990s, scholars working on the relationship between the Western European Left and nationalism have privileged case studies on left‐wing ethno‐regionalist movements (Beramendi & Nuñes Seixas, 1996; Elias, 2009; Kernalegenn & Pasquier, 2014) or on the Left and centre–periphery conflicts in specific regions (Jones, 2017; Keating & Bleiman, 1979). Some works on the Left and state‐led nationalism in Western European countries—such as France (Martigny, 2016; Stuart, 2006) or Spain (Custodi, 2021; de Blas Guerrero, 1989)—exist, but they are few and far between.…”

This article introduces our themed section on The Left(s) and Nationalism(s), which provides a comparative analysis of the relationship between nationalism and different leftwing parties in Western Europe. It highlights the innovative comparative perspectives offered by this themed section, which not only concerns a series of different geographical cases studies but also involves the ideological plurality of the Left. The larger research question that our contributors address is how different left-wing parties have dealt with the inherent ideological tension between the universality claimed by the Left and the particularism inherent in nationalism, as a doctrine and a principle of political legitimacy. The article stresses three main contributions of our themed section: (1) Western European left-wing parties do engage with the themes of nationalism and nationhood, but they often rely on convenient silence to solve some of the contradictions with their progressive ideology. (2) None of these parties have formulated thick versions of the respective national identities. (3) State-wide left-wing parties have used instrumental conceptions of nationhood to address the challenge of separatist parties, but only with mixed results.

“…Part of the liberation movements and parties in Western Europe, Galician nationalist organizations in the 1960s and 1970s were no exception. A variety of Galician minor organizations proliferated in the 1970s, spreading across the left-right political spectrum yet mostly left-leaning (Beramendi and Núñez Seixas, 1996;Máiz, 1996). Before the birth of the BNG, the main political party in Galician nationalism, the Communist Union do Povo Galego (UPG) epitomized the quest to emulate a national liberation movement.…”

“…The discourse also emphasized the misgivings of the Spanish state, the Galician PP government, and the European institutions. Although the discourses and policies were moderated over the period 1994-2012, the BNG never formally renounced its 1982 political principles (Beramendi and Núñez Seixas, 1996;Máiz, 1996;Máiz and Ares, 2018).…”

This article explains the rise, success, and subsequent failure of new challenger formations in the Galician party system during the Great Recession. For that, it focuses on the multidimensional electoral strategies developed by Alternativa Galega de Esquerda (AGE) and En Marea, comparing them to that of the traditional Bloque Nacionalista Galego (BNG). Our analysis shows the different strategies displayed by the BNG and new challengers (AGE, and later En Marea), examining both the electoral supply (framing and party programmatic positions) and demand (voter positions). We find a new subsuming strategy developed by AGE and En Marea, which prioritized left-wing anti-austerity policies over core pro-periphery ones. The paper demonstrates the potential of this new strategy during the Great Recession but also its limitations, linking its demise to the organizational weakness that prevented electoral realignment, and ultimately allowed the BNG to regain its leading role in the territorial dimension of competition.
