https://doi.org/10.24201/fi.v62i2.2897Palabras clave:
populismo, política exterior, concepción de papel nacional, India, Israel, Palestina, relaciones internacionalesResumen
En este artículo se estudian los elementos propios de una estrategia populista de política exterior, tomando el caso de las relaciones entre India e Israel a partir de la llegada al poder de Narendra Modi, en 2014. Se argumenta que una estrategia de política exterior es populista cuando: 1) apela a la voluntad del pueblo; 2) incorpora un discurso en el que se acentúa la confrontación entre el “Otro” y las élites con el pueblo; 3) se centralizan las decisiones, y 4) procura mostrar congruencia de las acciones con la concepción del papel nacional que legitima esas decisiones. Se plantea igualmente que una estrategia populista en política exterior se forja a partir de cálculos muy complejos, en los que se contemplan presiones nacionales e internacionales.
