Populisme

This book is notable for its 'minimalist' definition of populism, which focuses on the core ideology rather than specific policy positions or historical manifestations. This approach allows for a broader comparative analysis across diverse political contexts.

While comprehensive, the book is structured to be accessible, providing a clear conceptual framework for understanding populism without requiring extensive prior knowledge of political theory. It serves as an excellent introduction to the academic study of the phenomenon.

This book distills and refines many of the key arguments and analytical tools that Cas Mudde and Cristóbal Rovira Kaltwasser have developed individually and collaboratively in their extensive research on populism. It offers a concise synthesis of their established perspectives.
