9781032788883: The Ideational Approach to Populism, Volume II (Routledge Studies in Extremism and Democracy)

Synopsis

This book provides a series of specific predictions about the distinct impact of populist ideas.

In this sequel to the first volume, the ideational approach to populism is extended, providing a robust theoretical framework for understanding populism’s consequences and for identifying policies that mitigate its most negative effects. It reaffirms that ideas matter, arguing that an ideational definition of populism leads to more accurate, and sometimes surprising predictions about the impact of populism at multiple levels of analysis. The chapters of this edited volume explore the effect of populist ideas in each of four areas: consequences for state-level institutions, voters, and international relations; and mitigation. The ideational approach encourages us instead to invest in more systematic engagement with populists and pay better attention to our communication skills.

It will be of interest to students and scholars of politics, international relations, social psychology, and political communication.
