In the wake of a series of late-2019 identitarian conflicts, public discourse in the Belgian region of Flanders was marked by references to the 1930s and 1940s as well as debates about the political appropriateness and significance of such historical allusions. Moving beyond a description of how historical references are condensed in digital political communication, the present article investigates a corpus of tweets sent from accounts of Flemish MPs in order to open up interdisciplinary perspectives on, among others, the dynamics of implicit and explicit accusations of fascism, and the complex, contested fields of speech in which the 1930s and 1940s are evoked on social media. It is thereby argued that (1) on Twitter, terminology associated with the 1930s and 1940s blurs boundaries between present and past, (2) that this conceptual flexibility allows these terms to be deployed in support of a range of political strategies, and (3) that these strategies share prominent accusatory aspects. The paper thus makes an evidence-based contribution to our understanding of how the memory and imagery of the 1930s and the Second World War strategically figure in digital political communication. These findings on online conflict and debate dynamics are supplemented with a methodological reflection on the gains of adopting a localized approach to the analysis of social media texts.

#戈德温。佛兰芒议员推文中对 30 年代和第二次世界大战的战略参考的话语分析和类型学

在 2019 年末的一系列身份主义冲突之后,比利时法兰德斯地区的公共话语以提及 1930 年代和 1940 年代以及关于此类历史典故的政治适当性和重要性的辩论为标志。除了描述如何在数字政治传播中浓缩历史参考资料之外,本文还研究了从佛兰芒国会议员的账户发送的推文语料库,以便就法西斯主义的隐含和明确指控的动态开辟跨学科视角。 ,以及在社交媒体上唤起 1930 年代和 1940 年代的复杂、有争议的言论领域。因此有人认为 (1) 在 Twitter 上,与 1930 年代和 1940 年代相关的术语模糊了现在和过去之间的界限,(2) 这种概念上的灵活性允许这些术语被部署以支持一系列政治策略,以及 (3) 这些策略具有突出的指责方面。因此,本文为我们理解 1930 年代和第二次世界大战的记忆和意象如何在数字政治传播中发挥战略作用做出了基于证据的贡献。这些关于在线冲突和辩论动态的发现补充了对采用本地化方法分析社交媒体文本的收益的方法论反思。因此,本文为我们理解 1930 年代和第二次世界大战的记忆和意象如何在数字政治传播中发挥战略作用做出了基于证据的贡献。这些关于在线冲突和辩论动态的发现补充了对采用本地化方法分析社交媒体文本的收益的方法论反思。因此,本文为我们理解 1930 年代和第二次世界大战的记忆和意象如何在数字政治传播中发挥战略作用做出了基于证据的贡献。这些关于在线冲突和辩论动态的发现补充了对采用本地化方法分析社交媒体文本的收益的方法论反思。
