This chapter examines the development of the pan-European party movements Volt and DiEM25 from the 2019 to the 2024 EP elections. It takes stock of the electoral results and the transnational character of both party movements and examines their strategies to establish themselves as pro-European challengers in the EU. While Volt managed to increase its vote share compared to 2019 and established itself, albeit modestly, as a new political actor in the EU’s multi-level governance, DiEM25 remained largely electorally insignificant. The chapter highlights that Volt took a pragmatic approach to improve its electoral outcomes, while DiEM25 maintained its transformative agenda, reflecting its hybrid movement-party character.

摘要

This chapter examines the development of the pan-European party movements Volt and DiEM25 from the 2019 to the 2024 EP elections. It takes stock of the electoral results and the transnational character of both party movements and examines their strategies to establish themselves as pro-European challengers in the EU. While Volt managed to increase its vote share compared to 2019 and established itself, albeit modestly, as a new political actor in the EU’s multi-level governance, DiEM25 remained largely electorally insignificant. The chapter highlights that Volt took a pragmatic approach to improve its electoral outcomes, while DiEM25 maintained its transformative agenda, reflecting its hybrid movement-party character.
