Populisms in the 21st century

The 21st century will be the century of populism, according to some authors. A phenomenon celebrated by some and demonized by others, of difficult conceptual precision, does populism raise endless debates about its “essence” - political strategy? mobilization instrument? ideology? democratic ethos? speech? simple communication style? - , its causes and, above all, its consequences for democratic systems. Over time, multiple theoretical approaches and typologies were developed, mainly through case studies. As a result of this lack of clear delimitation of populism as a concept and phenomenon, there is a theoretical impasse with profound political implications. However, regardless of the interpretative or normative approach to be used, populism must be understood as a kind of response to contemporary problems, particularly due to its high penetration capacity in various areas and themes: political parties, social movements, nationalism, fascism , foreign policy, identities, gender, religion, media and migrations. Therefore, the objective of this dossier is to offer our readers, from a multidisciplinary perspective, an update on the reflections on populism in the 21st century - called, by some authors, neopopulism in order to differentiate it from "classic" populism.
