ABSTRACT

The third chapter is devoted to the study of the values driving the activities of the PRLPs and the content that these values take on in the “social imaginary.” With regard to the crisis of traditional ideologies, this chapter proposes to analyze the scenario in which the Populist Radical Left Parties go about organizing themselves with respect to values. Moreover, in this same part of the book, we address the theme of “democratic sovereigntism” and how this concept is declined on the left in partial contradiction with the history of parties of the European left.
