Populism in Europe and Latin America. Threat to Democracy or Genuine Representation of the Popular?

In this IPSA Panel, speakers will discuss the term “populism” from a historical perspective.

In Latin American social sciences, the term “populism” has been used to denote several political phenomena since the 60s. At the dawn of the 21st century, new political experiences and theoretical developments served to lend new meanings to the notion of “populism.”  The new century also witnessed similar phenomena in Europe and North America, albeit with their own particularities. The term “populism” also suggests a political bias. Thus, its treatment, discussion and comparative research provide a vital bridge between colleagues from the north and south. Latin American political science can contribute a wealth of knowledge on the subject at a global level.

Speakers

  • Marianne Kneuer (IPSA Past President)
  • Pablo Oñate (IPSA President-Elect)
  • André Borges (Universidade de Brasília)
  • Sabrina Morán (Universidad de Buenos Aires)
