Parlamento Europeo, Twitter, visibilidad, politización, Unión Europea, medios sociales, comunicación politicaResumen
Estudios recientes apuntan a una progresiva politización de la Unión Europa, después de que durante años se considerase un proyecto de las élites políticas que apenas recibía atención por parte de la ciudadanía europea. El objetivo del presente artículo es encontrar pruebas sobre el avance en el proceso de politización del proyecto europeo. Para ello, se ha realizado un análisis de todos los tuits publicados durante la campaña electoral de 2019 por todos los partidos políticos de Alemania, Francia, Italia y España. Se estudian los temas tratados y el número de partidos que hablan sobre esos temas, para rastrear dos de los elementos necesarios para considerar un asunto politizado: su visibilidad y la diversidad de voces. El artículo aborda una cuestión que ha sido objeto de investigaciones anteriores empleando una nueva metodología y en un momento especialmente relevante de la historia; las primeras elecciones que se celebran tras el Brexit. La investigación aporta resultados que pueden ser interpretados como evidencias de una creciente politización de la política comunitaria en asuntos como la política climática o social.
