Populism has become a catchword for mass media and politicians faced with the challenge of protest parties or movements. It has often been equated with the radical right. This unique volume demonstrates that populism is an ambiguous but constitutive component of democratic systems torn between ideology (government of the people, by the people, for the people) and performance.
