Summary

maps issue linkage in the public sphere as key component of cleavage formation. Cleavage coalitions in public debates about globalization are mapped using inductive methods. Multidimensional scaling reveals a powerful globalist coalition in all five countries under study - Germany, Poland, Mexico, Turkey and USA - which links various globalization-related issues in a general call for open borders. It is opposed by a protectionist coalition arguing against free trade, a nationalist coalition arguing against immigration and a neoliberal coalition that only champions free trade. This confirms that globalization-related conflict is two dimensional, with conflict over cultural and economic globalization distinct from each other.
