Populism är ett flitigt använt begrepp både i den allmänna debatten och den akademiska diskussionen om politik. Samtidigt är begreppets innebörd så vag att det ibland skapar mer förvirring än klar politisk analys. Begreppet populism har använts för att beteckna såväl vänsterorienterade rörelser i Latinamerika som ytterhögerpartier i Europa och presidentkandidater i USA.Vad är egentligen populism? Vilka politiska ledare brukar beskrivas som populistiska? Och hur ser relationen mellan populism och demokrati ut? I denna korta introduktion beskriver Cas Mudde och Cristóbal Rovira Kaltwasser populism som en ideologi som delar samhället i två antagonistiska delar: det rena folket mot den korrupta eliten. Utifrån en initierad diskussion kring populismens betydelse och dess geografiska spridning redogör författarna för dess orsaker och långsiktiga konsekvenser för demokratin. Populism. En kort introduktion ges här ut i svensk översättning, med ett förord av Niklas Bolin, docent i statsvetenskap vid Mittuniversitetet.

Ytterhögern är tillbaka, och det med besked. Efter årtionden i marginalen har ytterhögern tagit plats i politikens centrum. Tre av världens största länder – Brasilien, Indien och USA – har under de senaste åren haft höger-radikala ledare samtidigt som partier från den yttersta högern fortsätter att växa i Europa.I denna aktuella bok ger Cas Mudde, världsledande forskare på politisk högerextremism, en kortfattad överblick över efterkrigstidens ytterhöger-politik. Här undersöks dess historia, ideologi och organisation, dess förutsättningar och konsekvenser. Boken ger också underlag för såväl civil-samhällets aktörer som etablerade politiker att ifrågasätta ytter-högerns idéer och inflytande.Det som utmärker den samtida högerrenässansen på ytterkanten är hur den normaliserar sina uttryck i det samtida politiska samtalet. Genom att utmana den vanliga dikotomin mellan konventionell politik och ytterkantspolitik erbjuder Mudde en komplex bild av ett fenomen som också utgör en av vår tids stora politiska utmaningar.Ytterhögern i dag har fått stor internationell uppmärksamhet och ges här ut i svensk översättning, med ett förord av Niklas Bolin, docent i stats-vetenskap vid Mittuniversitetet.

As Europe enters a significant phase of re-integration of East and West, it faces an increasing problem with the rise of far-right political parties. Cas Mudde offers the first comprehensive and truly pan-European study of populist radical right parties in Europe. He focuses on the parties themselves, discussing them both as dependent and independent variables. Based upon a wealth of primary and secondary literature, this book offers critical and original insights into three major aspects of European populist radical right parties: concepts and classifications; themes and issues; and explanations for electoral failures and successes. It concludes with a discussion of the impact of radical right parties on European democracies, and vice versa, and offers suggestions for future research.

The far right is back with a vengeance. After several decades at the political margins, far-right politics has again taken center stage. Three of the world’s largest democracies – Brazil, India, and the United States – now have a radical right leader, while far-right parties continue to increase their profile and support within Europe.In this timely book, leading global expert on political extremism Cas Mudde provides a concise overview of the fourth wave of postwar far-right politics, exploring its history, ideology, organization, causes, and consequences, as well as the responses available to civil society, party, and state actors to challenge its ideas and influence. What defines this current far-right renaissance, Mudde argues, is its mainstreaming and normalization within the contemporary political landscape. Challenging orthodox thinking on the relationship between conventional and far-right politics, Mudde offers a complex and insightful picture of one of the key political challenges of our time.

Populism is a central concept in the current media debates about politics and elections. However, like most political buzzwords, the term often floats from one meaning to another, and both social scientists and journalists use it to denote diverse phenomena. What is populism really? Who are the populist leaders? And what is the relationship between populism and democracy? This book answers these questions in a simple and persuasive way, offering a swift guide to populism in theory and practice.Cas Mudde and Cristóbal Rovera Kaltwasser present populism as an ideology that divides society into two antagonistic camps, the "pure people" versus the "corrupt elite," and that privileges the general will of the people above all else. They illustrate the practical power of this ideology through a survey of representative populist movements of the modern era: European right-wing parties, left-wing presidents in Latin America, and the Tea Party movement in the United States. The authors delve into the ambivalent personalities of charismatic populist leaders such as Juan Domingo Péron, H. Ross Perot, Jean-Marie le Pen, Silvio Berlusconi, and Hugo Chávez. If the strong male leader embodies the mainstream form of populism, many resolute women, such as Eva Péron, Pauline Hanson, and Sarah Palin, have also succeeded in building a populist status, often by exploiting gendered notions of society.Although populism is ultimately part of democracy, populist movements constitute an increasing challenge to democratic politics. Comparing political trends across different countries, this compelling book debates what the long-term consequences of this challenge could be, as it turns the spotlight on the bewildering effect of populism on today's political and social life.

Many of today's populist radical right (PRR) leaders in Europe came through their party's youth wings. Yet, we know little about these organizations and how they support their parties. This book, which is not only the first to examine PRR youth wings, but is the first in English to look at youth wings of any ideological type, offers an in-depth investigation of their structures (organizational features, relationships with the senior party, and international networks) and agents (leaders and grassroots members). Covering ten PRR youth wings from across Europe and based on extensive interviews with over 50 PRR youth wing officials, original survey data, and document analysis, it finds that PRR youth wings are not merely peripheral future-oriented entities, but are central components of their parties in the here and now, acting as motors of mobilization, socialization, internationalization, professionalization, and normalization. The book argues that PRR youth wings function as Janus-faced institutions, supporting the populist radical right today and helping build the populist radical right of tomorrow.

This volume makes a significant contribution to the debate about the development of post-communist civil society by focusing on its alleged 'dark side', i.e., on the groups that are excluded from 'civil society' on both conceptual and normative grounds. The chapters, written by specialists in the field, explore in rich empirical detail the complexities involved when such groups - like the skinheads in Hungary, the farmers' 'Self Defence' movement in Poland or the war-veterans in Croatia - challenge the state, engage in community activism, or get involved in protest actions. It also offers a contrasting perspective by focusing on similar activities by the alleged 'pro-democratic' actors of civil society, such as Impulse 99 in the Czech Republic. The book maintains that political protest, or contentious politics, should be included under a broad and positive development of associational activity in the region.Uncivil Society? Contentious Politics in Post-Communist Europe is a fascinating study, and will be of interest to scholars of Eastern European politics and history.

By the turn of the 1990s, Western democracy appeared destined to become the universal governmental norm. However, as we move into the new millennium there are growing signs that extremism is far from dead. In recent years, the extreme right has gathered notable support in many Western countries, such as Austria, France and Italy. Racist violence, initially aimed at 'immigrants', is on the rise, and in the US, and increasingly in Europe, the state itself has become a major target. This book considers the varying trajectories of the 'extreme right' and 'populist' parties and focuses on the problems of responses to these trends, an issue which has hitherto been neglected in academic literature.

Although 'populism' has become something of a buzzword in discussions about politics, it tends to be studied by country or region. This is the first book to offer a genuine cross-regional perspective on populism and its impact on democracy. By analyzing current experiences of populism in Europe and the Americas, this edited volume convincingly demonstrates that populism can be both a threat and a corrective to democracy. The contributors also demonstrate the interesting similarities between right-wing and left-wing populism: both types of populism are prone to defend a political model that is not against democracy per se, but rather at odds with liberal democracy. Populism in Europe and the Americas offers new insights into the current state of democracy from both a theoretical and an empirical point of view.

The Israeli settler movement plays a key role in Israeli politics and the Arab-Israeli conflict, yet very few empirical studies of the movement exist. This is the first in-depth examination of the contemporary Israeli settler movement from a structural (rather than purely historical or political) perspective, and one of the few studies to focus on a longstanding, radical right-wing social movement in a non-western political context. A trailblazing systematic assessment of the role of the settler movement in Israeli politics writ large, as well as in relation to Israel's policy towards the West Bank, this book analyzes the movement both as a whole and as a combination of its parts (i.e. branches) - institutions, networks, and individuals. Whether you are a student, researcher, or policymaker, this book offers a comprehensive and original theoretical framework alongside a rich empirical analysis which illuminates social movements in general, and the Israeli settler movement in particular.

On Extremism and Democracy in Europe is a collection of short and accessible essays on the far right, populism, Euroscepticism, and liberal democracy by one of the leading academic and public voices today. It includes both sober, fact-based analysis of the often sensationalized "rise of the far right" in Europe as well as passionate defence of the fundamental values of liberal democracy. Sometimes counter-intuitive and always thought-provoking, Mudde argues that the true challenge to liberal democracy comes from the political elites at the centre of the political systems rather than from the political challengers at the political margins. Pushing to go beyond the simplistic opposition of extremism and democracy, which is much clearer in theory than in practice, he accentuates the internal dangers of liberal democracy without ignoring the external threats. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in European politics, extremism and/or current affairs more generally.

The populist radical right is one of the most studied political phenomena in the social sciences, counting hundreds of books and thousands of articles. This is the first reader to bring together the most seminal articles and book chapters on the contemporary populist radical right in western democracies. It has a broad regional and topical focus and includes work that has made an original theoretical contribution to the field, which make them less time-specific. The reader is organized in six thematic sections: (1) ideology and issues; (2) parties, organizations, and subcultures;(3) leaders, members, and voters; (4) causes; (5) consequences; and (6) responses. Each section features a short introduction by the editor, which introduces and ties together the selected pieces and provides discussion questions and suggestions for further readings. The reader is ended with a conclusion in which the editor reflects on the future of the populist radical right in light of (more) recent political developments – most notably the Greek economic crisis and the refugee crisis – and suggest avenues for future research.

I Fronesis nr 34 diskuteras folkets betydelse för demokratin. Vilket är det »folk« som ständigt åberopas för att genomdriva samhällsförändringar eller upprätthålla status quo? Vi undersöker folkbegreppets historia, samtida uttryck för populism och diskuterar folkmaktens betydelse i en värld där den politiska och ekonomiska makten allt mindre sammanfaller med nationalstatens gränser. Folkviljan, populismen och demokratin Politiken präglas alltmer av en vilja att företräda »vanligt folk«. Göran Hägglund och kristdemokraterna talar om »verklighetens folk« medan Sverigedemokraterna säger sig stå upp för »folkhemmet«. Ute i Europa har den populistiska radikalhögern letat sig in i både parlament och regeringar. I Latinamerika kommer de populistiska uttrycken tvärtom vänsterifrån. Demokrati handlar alltid om folket och dess rätt att styra sig självt. Men det är ingalunda självklart vilka som utgör folket eller vad som menas med folkviljan. Folket kan avse den samlade befolkningen, exempelvis när folkets röst ska uttryckas genom ett allmänt val. Men det kan också avse bara en del av befolkningen. »Vanligt folk« kan ställas mot samhällets eliter och svenskar kan ställas mot icke-svenskar. I Fronesis nr 34 diskuteras folkets betydelse för demokratin. Vilket är det »folk« som ständigt åberopas för att genomdriva samhällsförändringar eller upprätthålla status quo? Vi undersöker folkbegreppets historia, samtida uttryck för populism och diskuterar folkmaktens betydelse i en värld där den politiska och ekonomiska makten allt mindre sammanfaller med nationalstatens gränser. Den holländske statsvetaren Cas Mudde analyserar den populistiska radikalhögern i Europa och hävdar att den främst är en patologisk variant av ett tänkande som i övrigt accepteras i våra samhällen. Sverigedemokraternas hänvisningar till »folkhemmet« undersöks av statsvetaren Anders Hellström. Den italienske sociologen Carlo Ruzza skriver om den höger som styr Berlusconis Italien. Den argentisk-engelske filosofen Ernesto Laclau diskuterar utifrån exemplet Hugo Chávez populismens betydelse i dagens Latinamerika. Huruvida »putinismen« i Ryssland går att förstå som ett slags populism behandlas av statsvetaren Mi Lennhag. Vi publicerar dessutom en rad klassiska nyckeltexter, bland annat Emmanuel Joseph Sieyès »Vad är det tredje ståndet?« från 1789 och den tidiga feministen Elizabeth Cady Stantons Seneca Falls-förklaring från 1848. Historikern C. L. R. James diskuterar de slavuppror som ledde till bildandet av den första postkoloniala staten Haiti i början av 1800-talet. De politiska filosoferna Michael Hardt och Antonio Negri gör i sitt bidrag upp med de föreställningar om »folket« som traditionellt har präglat såväl vänsterns tänkande som andra synsätt.
