Estonia: Political Developments and Data in 2023

AbstractParliamentary elections in March 2023 brought a stronger than ever mandate for the ruling Reform Party, which formed a new all‐liberal coalition with the Social Democratic Party and Estonia 200. However, the deteriorating public image of the Prime Minister and her party, the fact that Estonia 200 lost its new party image, and the political decisions made by the new government brought government approval and support drastically down by the end of the year. Struggling to tackle a growing budget deficit and to invigorate an economy in recession, it was a politically tough year for Estonia. And the fact that all viable coalitions until the next parliamentary elections in 2027 must include the Reform Party was likely to keep politics rigid, on the one hand, and tense on the other.

Dynamics of Political Communication between Megawati and Puan Maharani in the Leadership of the Partai Demokrasi Indonesia Perjuangan

This study analyzes the dynamics of political communication between Megawati Soekarnoputri and Puan Maharani in the leadership of the Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle (PDIP). Using a descriptive-analytical approach and Symbolic Interactionism theory, this research highlights the importance of symbols in shaping public perception of both leaders. The results of the analysis indicate that their political interactions influence the party's image, especially in the context of specific political events such as elections and policy controversies. The interpretation of political communication symbols also reveals the complexity of public perception towards the PDIP and its leaders. The implications for the PDIP leadership in facing political challenges, including coalition formation, underscore the importance of responsive and effective communication strategies. This study provides valuable insights into the dynamics of Indonesian politics and makes a significant contribution to understanding political communication and party dynamics in the country.

Development of Hydrophilic Oxide/Polymer Composite Membranes for Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cells Operating at Wide Temperature Range

Toward the wide-spread use of heavy-duty vehicles (HDVs) operated by polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFCs) should approach the higher temperature around 120oC besides normal temperature (60-80oC). Commercial perfluorosulfonic acid-based electrolyte (PFSA, e.g. NafionⓇ) shows better proton conductivity with chemical stability in wide temperatures range, though decreases under low back pressure at 100~120 oC. In order to improve the proton conductivity at the higher temperature range, composite membrane of NafionⓇ with a hydrophilic filler of Ta doped TiO2 (Ta-TiO2) was synthesized. The Ta-TiO2 nanoparticles fillers with fused-aggregate network microstructure were synthesized by the flame method, and were crushed by wet mill(Star Burst, :Sugino Machine Limited CO.). The fillers were mixed with NafionⓇsolution (20 wt.%：D2020 Chemours Co.) by use of a rotary ultrasonic dispersing processor (500 rpm, 60 min. PR-1 :Thnky Co.), a planetary ball mill (500 rpm、30 min.：PULVERISETTE 6：FRITSCH Co.), and a defoaming processor (500 rpm、5 min.：HM-400W: Kyouritu Seiki). The dispersion solution was coated in hot air by use of a die coating system (die coater: Taku-Dai Mini-50: Daimon Co., Ltd.), and were hot-pressed (140 ℃ 3 min. TCMD-2.5:TOHO KOGYO co.) to form composite membranes (9 cm×9 cm ×25 µmt).The cross-sectional backscattered electron image BSE) of the composite membrane observed by scanning electron microscope (SEM, acceleration voltage 2 kV, SU9000: Hitachi High-Tech Co.) and transmission electron microscope (TEM, H-9500: Hitachi High-Tech Co.). The proton conductivity of the composite membrane was measured by the AC four-probe method. The current-voltage (IV) polarization curves of Single cells using the prepared composite membrane (membrane thickness: 25 µm) were measured at 80 ℃ 100% RH and 120 ℃ 20% RH, back pressure 50 kPaG.The obtained composite membranes were well flexibility with softness. The BSE images indicated that the high contrast images of Ta-TiO2 parties were uniformly dispersed in composite membrane. The higher magnified of the cross-sectional TEM images also showed that the hydrophilic surface of Ta-TiO2 adhered to the Nafion® without any air pores. The proton conductivity of the composite membrane at 80% RH increased with increasing Ta-TiO2 content and showed maximum value of 0.13 S cm-1at 3 wt%, and then decreased. The maximum proton conductivity was 1.3 times higher than that of Nafion®. The IV performance of the single cell using composite membrane kept same performance to that using Nafion® membrane at 80 oC 100% RH, and then improved at 120 oC 20% RH. The water content at 120 oC 20% RH kept higher value by the effect of hydrophilicity of the Ta-TiO2, which would be one of the reasons to enhance the cell performance at 120 oC 20% RH. Figure 1

Political Communication and Personal Imaging (Study of Giring Ganesha’s Political Speech at Indonesian Solidarity Party Anniversary)

Speech delivery is a form of communication skill that aims to convey certain messages to the public. In giving speeches or giving speeches, especially in political speeches, a political party figure carries out the duties and carries out the functions of his party. The purpose of the research is to dissect the communication message conveyed by Giring Ganesha as the general chairman of PSI in the Political Speech at PSI's 7th Anniversary, as well as to find out the purpose of Giring Ganesha as a representation of PSI and the impression that is built as part of political imagery. This research is a qualitative exploratory research, which is used to explore data so that it can provide in-depth understanding and understanding of the object of research. This study is directed to clearly describe the image formed by Giring Ganesha who is also the General Chair of the Indonesian Solidarity Party in his political speech for the 7th Anniversary of the Indonesian Solidarity Party on December 22, 2021. The research method used in this study is discourse analysis by Roger Fowler et al. According to Focault, discourse is a field of all statements, sometimes as an individualization of a group of statements, and sometimes as a regulatory practice seen from a number of statements. (1) Giring Ganesha's speech as a party representative further strengthens PSI's support for President Joko Widodo's Government and it is recognized that President Jokowi's magnetism is still very strong in gaining constituent support, especially young people. (2) As a form of modern, adaptive, intoxicated Party image.

Восприятие политических партий и их лидеров на фоне актуального психологического состояния российского общества

The article is devoted to the images of the Russian parties and their leaders against the background of the changes in the psychological state of our society in the modern conditions. The study was based on qualitative and quantitative research conducted in late 2022 — early 2023 in 22 regions. The object of the study were five parties represented in the State Duma (United Russia, The Communist Party of the Russian Federation, The Liberal Democratic Party, A Just Russia — For Truth, New People) and their leaders (A.Turchak, G.Zyuganov, V.Zhirinovsky, L.Slutsky, S.Mironov, and A.Nechaev). The research methodology included a survey, an in-depth interview, a semantic differential, a projective test, and a directed associations method. The study was not representative of the country as a whole, but the sample was balanced in terms of gender, age and education. The study demonstrated that the high level of anxiety and concerns of citizens about military actions did not affect a number of perception parameters, such as the attitude towards parties as a necessary part of the democratic process, the lack of a clear ideological identification of parties, and the personification of party images. At the same time, some parameters have undergone a significant transformation. First, the perception of a position of parties within the framework of the dichotomy “power — opposition” has changed. The Communist Party of the Russian Federation, A Just Russia — For Truth and The Liberal Democratic Party have lost a significant part of their image as opposition in the perception of citizens, while support for United Russia, which is clearly associated with the authorities, has increased. Second, the popularity of a flamboyant style has become a thing of the past, and today the image of the centrist party is the most attractive for voters. The new political reality requires that parties work to consolidate the society in the face of an external threat rather than demonstrate their independence and distance themselves from the authorities. Third, if before the beginning of the 2020s the demand for conservatism prevailed in the society, in the current situation social democratic and liberal values are more in demand.

Языковая реализация персуазивности в политическом дискурсе (на примере парламентских дебатов германского бундестага)

Within the framework of political discourse, language acts as one of the tools of the struggle for power and its functioning is possible due to the implementation of certain strategies and tactics. The aim of the study is to identify and describe the communication tools used by politicians in parliamentary communication to manipulate the consciousness of recipients and to implement image-supporting or image-breaking intentions. The study is novel in that it is the first to consider the tactics of persuasion as a way of modelling the image of parties in two directions, namely, the focusing of the positive aspects of the image of one’s own party and the shortcomings of the opponent’s party or the defocusing of one’s own image shortcomings and the advantages of the competitor. As a result of the study, it was possible to identify a set of linguistic means (grammatical, lexical and stylistic) that serve to implement persuasiveness in institutional debates in order to focus and defocus advantages and disadvantages as basic cognitive operations to maintain and disrupt the image of politicians and the political parties they represent.

Dampak Politik Pencitraan (Imagologi) Terhadap Kontestasi Politik di Indonesia

From growth obsession to ecological promotion: The discursive construction of party image in Chinese political discourse on ecological civilization

The traditional definition of party image as being distinct, fixed, and receiver-determined, has been replaced by the understanding that party image is invested with more dynamic and complex features and is dialectically constructed by discourse to influence public perceptions. By adopting Van Dijk’s socio-cognitive model of critical discourse analysis, this study explores party images and how they are discursively constructed in CPC’s political discourse on ecological civilization. The discourse analysis reveals that five images have prominently been constructed: the goal-setter of future blueprints, lesson-taker of past development pattern, the coordinator of ecology and economy, the determined fighter against environmental disruption, and the systematic governor of ecological path. They are constructed through varying linguistic devices such as recontextualization, high-frequency repetition, and conceptual metaphors. The images and their construction are born out of the social cognition, the outcome of political system, changes of historical conditions, economic status, and cultural model, among which the emerging Chinese ideology of ‘moderate green’, and the consistent ideologies man is an integral part of nature (天人合一, tian ren he yi), Doctrine of the Mean (中庸之道, zhongyong zhidao), people-centeredness, and collectivism play a dominant role. This study helps find the fluidity of party images.

Perceptual Consequences of Portfolios: How Allocation Affects Left–Right Placement

AbstractRecent research suggests that party leaders can strategically impact the perceived left–right position of their parties by changing their selective emphasis on certain issues. We suggest that a party's ideological image can also be altered by the portfolio allocation of the coalition government in which the party participates. By controlling a portfolio, the party will have a more direct influence on the related issue and will frequently communicate the party's issue position publicly, thereby cultivating a perception of strong emphasis on the related issue. We run a cross-national party-level analysis showing that portfolio allocation matters with regard to the importance of the subdimensions for the general left–right dimension. In particular, the influence of sociocultural stances depends on the share of sociocultural portfolios. In addition, we show that the mechanism does not apply at the beginning of a government's tenure, but only after a year or longer in office.

LOCAL AND REGIONAL ELECTIONS IN SLOVAKIA IN 2022: THE IMPACT ON THE INTER-PARTY BALANCE AND STRUCTURING OF THE POLITICAL SPACE

The article analyzes local and regional elections in Slovakia in the context of identifying and systematizing the changes and trends in the political-party balance and structuring of the political space in this country. The author identifies the role of party blocs/coalitions, as well as the specifics of party representation in the councils/representative bodies of self-governing regions of Slovakia. The combinations of party blocs/coalitions of political parties participating in 2022 local and regional elections in Slovakia are also studied. The author states that the electoral choice of the Slovakian population remains quite personalized, since the tendency to personify the images of political parties is clearly preserved. Given this, the relationship between the electoral support of separate political parties in the analyzed election campaign is traced in accordance with their parliamentary or non-parliamentary positions. The study characterizes the results of the main participants of the election races in the regional dimension, as well as the role of local or subnational party projects. The researcher traces the structuring of the party space in Slovakia based on the regional differences of various regions of Slovakia (especially along the «west-east» line). In addition, the parameters of the ideological positioning of political parties, as well as the peculiarities of the representation of separate ethnic groups at local level are determined. It is revealed that (overcoming the threshold of inclusion and representation) Roma parties have become a political institution that represents the interests of their ethnic group on a par with «Hungarian» parties, which have been representing the interests of the Hungarian minority in Slovakia for a long time. Finally, particular attention is paid to the division of the participants of local and regional elections into «pro-Ukrainian» and «pro-Russian» ones, in particular in accordance with the newest spectrum of party-political structuring.

Cognitive Aspects of Studying the Image of Political Parties

Cognitive Aspects of Studying the Image of Political Parties

Shaping A Public Opinion As A Political Communication Challenge In Digital Disruption Era

The image of political actors and political parties is deemed good or bad when obtained by rising public opinion. Political communication skills are a difficulty, especially in the middle of digital disruption era. This research employs a qualitative method with a literature analysis. The result of the research is that public opinion is produced from the consumption of speech that is witnessed, including the political concerns they witness. The importance of preserving public opinion is a prerequisite for political actors and political parties to attain a common vision and objective. This has been demonstrated by public opinion, which believes that the president of the Republic of Indonesia, Joko Widodo, is rumored to be a communist. Public opinion is like a wild ball; if it is not managed, it will be harmful. The case turned out to be not only fake news because it was not founded on empirical facts, but it was also suspected that the matter was rolling because of political objectives.

Keberpihakan Media Massa pada Judul Pemberitaan Kasus Penembakan Anggota FPI di Tol Jakarta-Cikampek Indonesia

As a means of social control, the mass media needs to accurately describe an event to show its independence and credibility. Including, during the shooting incident of an FPI member on the Jakarta-Cikampek toll road, Indonesia in 2020. This event is not only of public concern, but also of language researchers to see how the mass media takes sides. By utilizing qualitative methods and critical discourse analysis initiated by Norman Fairclough, this study focuses on the analysis of the news headlines on the shooting of FPI members on the Jakarta Cikampek Toll Road. Based on the results of the analysis on news text production practices which are realized through titles, it appears that there is a partiality towards one of the parties. Apart from that, in the production of texts, there is also a motivation in the production of texts, namely efforts to create a positive image of certain parties.

Media as a Technological Tool and Channel for the Formation and Promotion of the Image of Political Parties

The present research is devoted to the study of the role of the media in shaping and promoting the image of political parties. The analysis used general scientific methods, such as institutional and historical, as well as elements of content analysis of official documents and analysis of statistical data. The study of the image of political parties will always be relevant to ensure modern mechanisms for its formation. However, in the era of digitalization, political parties must be able to instantly adapt to new trends and trends in the field of communication. Research on the visual aspects of political communication has now acquired particular relevance due to the spread of social media in the political sphere. Communications and the environment of communication in the modern world are changing, which means that the process of obtaining information is also changing. The study of technologies for promoting the political image of parties through such channels as the media and social networks is of particular importance. In modern democratic states, political parties act as that socio-political institution, the issue of the perception of the image of which by citizens is of particular interest. Political transformations taking place in modern society lead to fundamental transformations in the mass consciousness, a change in the perception of images, their semantic content. Political parties are undergoing significant changes both at the institutional level and at the level of the formation and perception of their image by the mass consciousness. Political parties today are forced to quickly adapt to new conditions, which invariably entails fundamental changes both in the party structure and in party politics. Mediatization pushes political parties to the inevitable activation of mechanisms to attract voters through the media.
