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.

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.

Populist forces are becoming increasingly relevant across the world, and studies on populism have entered the mainstream of the political science discipline. However, so far no book has synthesized the ongoing debate on how to study the populist phenomenon. This handbook provides state of the art research and scholarship on populism, and lays out, not only the cumulated knowledge on populism, but also the ongoing discussions and research gaps on this topic. IThe Oxford Handbook of Populism is divided into four sections. The first presents the main conceptual approaches on populism and points out how the phenomenon in question can be empirically analyzed. The second focuses on populist forces across the world and includes chapters on Africa, Australia and New Zealand, Central and Eastern Europe, East Asia, India, Latin America, the Post-Soviet States, the United States, and Western Europe. The third reflects on the interaction between populism and various relevant issues both from a scholarly and political point of view. Amongst other issues, chapters analyze the relationship between populism and fascism, foreign policy, gender, nationalism, political parties, religion, social movements and technocracy. Finally, the fourth part includes some of the most recent normative debates on populism, including chapters on populism and cosmopolitanism, constitutionalism, hegemony, the history of popular sovereignty, the idea of the people, and socialism. The handbook features contributions from leading experts in the field, and is indispensible, positioning the study of populism in political science.

In spite of the fact that Conservative, Christian democratic and Liberal parties continue to play a crucial role in the democratic politics and governance of every Western European country, they are rarely paid the attention they deserve. This cutting-edge comparative collection, combining qualitative case studies with large-N quantitative analysis, reveals a mainstream right squeezed by the need to adapt to both ''the silent revolution'' that has seen the spread of postmaterialist, liberal and cosmopolitan values and the backlash against those values – the ''silent counter-revolution'' that has brought with it the rise of a myriad far right parties offering populist and nativist answers to many of the continent''s thorniest political problems. What explains why some mainstream right parties seem to be coping with that challenge better than others? And does the temptation to ride the populist wave rather than resist it ultimately pose a danger to liberal democracy?

Populism is on the rise in Europe and the Americas. Scholars increasingly understand populist forces in terms of their ideas or discourse, one that envisions a cosmic struggle between the will of the common people and a conspiring elite. In this volume, we advance populism scholarship by proposing a causal theory and methodological guidelines – a research program – based on this ideational approach. This program argues that populism exists as a set of widespread attitudes among ordinary citizens, and that these attitudes lie dormant until activated by weak democratic governance and policy failure. It offers methodological guidelines for scholars seeking to measure populist ideas and test their effects. And, to ground the program empirically, it tests this theory at multiple levels of analysis using original data on populist discourse across European and US party systems; case studies of populist forces in Europe, Latin America, and the US; survey data from Europe and Latin America; and experiments in Chile, the US, and the UK. The result is a truly systematic, comparative approach that helps answer questions about the causes and effects of populism.

Una de las consecuencias de la victoria a escala mundial del neoliberalismo que se va revelando cada vez con mas claridad es el auge del populismo, ideologia o corriente politica que, por su propia debilidad ideologica o conceptual y la adaptabilidad de su discurso a diversas circunstancias, encuentra terreno abonado en la "e;democracia"e; de sociedades cada vez mas desiguales y descontentas. Reconocidas e insoslayables autoridades en el tema, Cas Mudde y Cristobal Rovira Kaltwasser repasan en este libro las bases de este fenomeno que se cimenta en la oposicion entre "e;el buen pueblo"e; y "e;la elite corrupta"e;, asi como sus mas significativas manifestaciones en Europa y en America Latina, proporcionando al lector un panorama sumamente clarificador de su escurridiza consistencia. La presente edicion ha sido adaptada expresamente para el ambito hispanohablante y cuenta asimismo con un prefacio a proposito.

Since the late 1990s, when Latin American countries began making a "turn to the left," political parties and candidates on the right end of the partisan spectrum have had a difficult time achieving electoral success. Although the left turn can be seen as a natural reaction to the public's general dissatisfaction with the conservative modernization policies of the 1980s and 1990s, left-of-center politics are by no means permanent. In The Resilience of the Latin American Right, Juan Pablo Luna and Cristobal Rovira Kaltwasser seek to "right" this view by explaining the strategies conservative political parties have used to maintain a foothold in the region's electoral and governance processes. The editors provide an analytical framework for conceptualizing the right that works for both historic and contemporary politics, and the volume's contributors use the framework to evaluate right-of-center political activity across the continent. They find that conservative forces are pursuing a range of adaptive strategies, including nonelectroral and nonpartisan tactics.The book's four thematic sections include an analysis of parties and elections in Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, El Salvador, Mexico, Peru, and Venezuela. Students and scholars of both Latin American politics and comparative politics will find The Resilience of the Latin American Right of vital interest.
