The study demonstrates the predominance of liberal\u2013internationalist and sovereigntist\u2013isolationist narratives. The analysis confirms that the economic left\u2013right divide is a weak predictor of foreign policy orientations, whereas the GAL\u2013TAN cleavage and the presence of populism \u2013 particularly radical-right populism \u2013 are more consequential. Overall, the research underscores the interdependence of domestic politics and foreign policy, while highlighting persistent diversity in Central European party narratives.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Foreign policy narratives of Central and Eastern European political parties &nbsp;
