Donald Trump, Silvio Berlusconi, Marine Le Pen, Hugo Chávez—populists are on the rise across the globe. But what exactly is populism? Should everyone who criticizes Wall Street or Washington be called a populist? What precisely is the difference between right-wing and left-wing populism? Does populism bring government closer to the people or is it a threat to democracy? Who are “the people” anyway and who can speak in their name? These questions have never been more pressing.
In this groundbreaking volume, Jan-Werner Müller argues that at populism’s core is a rejection of pluralism. Populists will always claim that they and they alone represent the people and their true interests. Müller also shows that, contrary to conventional wisdom, populists can govern on the basis of their claim to exclusive moral representation of the people: if populists have enough power, they will end up creating an authoritarian state that excludes all those not considered part of the proper “people.” The book proposes a number of concrete strategies for how liberal democrats should best deal with populists and, in particular, how to counter their claims to speak exclusively for “the silent majority” or “the real people.”
Analytical, accessible, and provocative, What Is Populism? is grounded in history and draws on examples from Latin America, Europe, and the United States to define the characteristics of populism and the deeper causes of its electoral successes in our time.

Seems a bit strange to me how only when it’s a non-democrat in office, suddenly concerns about populism become so popular that books are churned out. Kind of like how 1984 is suddenly a best seller again.
I could have sworn I saw people literally fainting and making songs about having a crush on Obama when he was running for office. This isn’t populism?
1984 is suddenly worth reading now? Have we not had college campuses putting out trigger warnings, lists of pronouns, and similar absurdities that look ripped straight out of the newspeak dictionary for a decade?
The lack of self-awareness is quite striking.

@divjoy, I think you are confusing populism with popularity. Download and listen to the book to find out what is populism. It’s short, only about 3 hours.
