This text contributes to current discussion related to political populism. From Zeman's inauguration speech, we deduced three thematic areas (corruption, extremism and media). Based on these issues and using CAQDAS, we examined the correlation between Zeman's rhetoric and theoretical framework of populism. The dataset for our analysis consists of whole Zeman's textual production during his first presidential term. Our effort was focused on how Miloš Zeman creates basic elements of populism (the people, the elites, the others) in relation to corruption, extremism, and media. Our analysis has shown that some basic principles of political populism have been frequently present in his speeches. Contrary to some other quite often cases of overusing of the concept of populism and using this concept without any proper empirical evidence, the main goal of our article was (based on the transparently explained theoretical and methodological framework) to clearly show that Miloš Zeman is populist. Our research can be used as a standpoint for broader comparative research of populism.

This study can be seen as a contribution to contemporary debate about political populism in Europe and focuses on CAQDAS related interpretation of election programmes of political parties that have succeeded in parliamentary elections held in October 2017 in Czech Republic. In the light of moral panic related to so called “immigration crisis” almost all participating parties were influenced by this topic. Our analysis tries to provide interpretation of election discourse with focus on the issues of nation, migration and their discursive relation created via election programme of analysed political parties. It is possible to say, that we used the topics of migration and nation (more specifically portrait of migration as a threat to nation) as a symbolic line to distinguish between populist and non-populist political parties. As we argue, the most significant representative of populist political style is Freedom and Direct Democracy Party led by Tomio Okamura.

The article deals with the phenomenon of political corruption. Political corruption is dominantly perceived as a potential threat for the stability of state apparatus. We try to present a different point of view on this phenomenon. Our concern is to provide an explanation of corruption through the mutual relation between corruption and state apparatus. From this point of view corruption can represent a possible (and sometimes useful) strategy of acting in particular social fields. We call this strategy “habitus of corruption”. Th is article should serve as a summary study of the phenomenon of political corruption as well as a possible source of theoretical and methodological inspiration in the field of study of corruption. The last goal of this paper is to demonstrate the suitability of an interdisciplinary approach in social sciences.
