Issue Description
The 2022 Italian general election, a special issue with Arianna Giovannini, Marco Valbruzzi, and Davide Vampa as Guest editors, features a series of scientific contributions that investigate the different, relevant aspects of the latest legislative elections in Italy.
The introduction by the special issue Guest editors places the 2022 election within the recent electoral history of Italy and the broader European context, and it argues that the election did not represent a radical change from the past. Rather it marked a further step in the emergence of a ‘new political normal’ characterized by volatility, fragmentation, mainstreaming of populist ideas and actors, polarization, and the reframing of socio-economic and socio-cultural cleavages.
