‘Populism can no longer be avoided if contemporary democracy is to be understood. This Research Handbook on Populism is fundamental to the social and political disciplines in their various subfields and methodologies, qualitative and quantitative. It indicates with rigorous critical precision the thematic nodes opened up by the study of movements and processes associated with populism, which can give us a better understanding of democracy and representation, the people and sovereignty.’
