Editorial Reviews
Review
"A wide ranging and well-constructed re-evaluation of a vital but intractable category ... this volume helps to reinvigorate a long tradition of comparative political analysis that deserves to regain a more central place in mainstream political science." - Lawrence Whitehead, Fellow in Politics, Nuffield College, Oxford "By convening a set of distinguished contributors and adding an enlightening editor's Introduction, this volume greatly clarifies and advances our knowledge of multiple facets of populism." - Guillermo O'Donnell, Kellogg Professor of Government, University of Notre Dame "Sheds new light in the surprising resurgence of populism in this era of globalization. With its penetrating analyses of populist discourse in a wide range of countries, the book is insightful and sophisticated. Recommended reading for all observers of contemporary politics!" - Kurt Weyland, Professor of Government, University of Texas at Austin
Product Description
Populism raises awkward questions about modern forms of democracy. It often represents the ugly face of the people. It is neither the highest form of democracy nor its enemy. It is, rather, a mirror in which democracy may contemplate itself, warts and all, in a discovery of itself and what it lacks.

Product Description
Populism raises awkward questions about modern forms of democracy. It often represents the ugly face of the people. It is neither the highest form of democracy nor its enemy. It is, rather, a mirror in which democracy may contemplate itself, warts and all, in a discovery of itself and what it lacks.
This definitive collection, edited by one of the world’s pre-eminent authorities on populism, Francisco Panizza, combines theoretical essays with a number of specially commissioned case studies on populist politics in the US, Britain, Canada, Western Europe, Palestine, Latin America and South Africa. A broadly shared understanding of the nature of populism gives the book a coherence rarely found in collective works and enhances the richness of the case studies.
