Summary/Abstract |
Nationalism threatens to imbue modern Japan with a rationale for increased militarism. Post-war nationalism was a reason Japan had launched war abroad, but the reinvigoration of Japanese nationalism is burgeoning under two-term Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. His sense of nationalism, which has domestic and international repercussions, has developed under the influence of his family political genes. Abe’s nationalism is being carried out in internal and external policies, with increasingly negative impact on domestic and regional order. The international community should remain vigilant of his right-wing politics.

Summary/Abstract |
Recent research on homonationalism addresses the ideological and electoral combination of LGBTQ+ politics and radical-right populism. However, right-wing LGBTQ+ identities remain seemingly paradoxical, as right-wing Christianity-rooted conservatism is generally hostile to LGBTQ+ empowerment. Grounded in literature on populist radical right and its relationship with religion and sexuality, as well as social identity theory, we argue that right-wing LGBTQ+ people resolve identity tension by creating a positive group image. Analysing over 2,500 posts on a prominent (new/alt/populist) right-wing LGBTQ+ Reddit community, r/RightWingLGBT, we found right-wing LGBTQ+ users maintain a positive self-identity by positioning themselves against ‘degenerate, liberal, non-binary queers’, thus limiting themselves to narrow iterations of acceptable queerness which are congruent with hetero- and cis-normativity. Islam replaces Christianity as the primary anti-LGBTQ+ outgroup, which, alongside a normalisation and naturalisation of religious-rooted moral selves, helps to reconcile LGBTQ+ identities and right-wing populism and establish homonationalism as a bottom-up phenomenon.

Summary/Abstract |
It is well-established that prolonged left-wing incumbency has a positive long-term effect on welfare effort in terms of high levels of social spending and reduced levels of economic inequality and poverty. Prolonged left-wing incumbency also influences the institutional set-up of welfare states, in particular generating strong support for existing arrangements in countries with large welfare states. The issue ownership literature furthermore shows that the public comes to distrust right-wing parties as defenders of the welfare state. In countries that have a tradition of left-wing incumbency it is particularly important for right-wing governments to compensate for the distrust of the public because of the popularity of the welfare state and strong vested interests. While right-wing governments on average are negatively associated with social spending, there is a strong positive association between right-wing government and social spending in traditionally left-wing countries. It is even the case that right-wing governments in these countries spend more on social welfare than left-wing governments. This indicates that right-wing governments are forced to compensate for the lack of public trust by being even more generous than the left.
