Creating apparent bipolarity as an elementary component of activity of Podemos

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to analyze the specifics of the functioning of the party Podemos in the context of the phenomenon of bipolarity. It is assumed that the creation of the Spanish policy of political forces, based on two different groups - citizens and “caste” is a fundamental factor in determining the characteristics of a group and methods of its activities. It is assumed that the elements shaping this type of specificity is to base a political strategy on the adaptation of identity developed by the Movement 15-M and the strong antagonism. At the same time it can be observed that the bipolarity of Podemos becomes a sham, which in turn is the result of a systematic adaptation to the standards of functioning of the party in the political life.
