摘要
This article is an exploratory analysis of the political style of the Romanian Social Democratic Party (PSD), which, despite being a mainstream center-left party, has shifted from a latent to a crystalized populist rhetoric. Using qualitative content analysis of party speeches and press statements from 2015-2019, the article shows how the political style of the party became more populist as the domestic justice system began to pressure leading PSD politicians. The data reveal an intersection between populist rhetoric and institutionalist discourse when the PSD was trying to amend the rule-of-law institutions.
