Populism by Cas Mudde
This book defines populism as a thin-centered ideology that divides society into a unified 'pure people' and a corrupt 'elite,' analyses how it attaches to other ideologies (left, right, and center), and distinguishes between its democratic and authoritarian forms. It examines the causes and manifestations of contemporary populist movements and parties across countries, the stylistic and organizational traits they share, and the ways populism both channels legitimate grievances and poses risks to liberal democratic norms. The author evaluates empirical evidence about populism’s effects on policy and institutions and discusses normative and practical responses to its rise.
