Team Populism is excited to present this new volume, which examines the societal and democratic consequences of populism, including polarization, democratic erosion, and policy instability. It also evaluates strategies to mitigate these effects.
OPUS has elected new leadership: Charlie Meier, Leipzig University; Yujin Julia Jung, University of Missouri; Jeongho Choi, University of Iowa.
Team Populism now has trainings for coding speeches for populist discourse.
About Us:
Team Populism brings together renowned scholars from Europe and the Americas to study the causes and consequences of populism. We seek to answer why some populist parties, leaders or movements are more successful than others.
Our general argument is that populism is best understood as a combination of individual and contextual issues (demand side) and the availability of successful leaders (supply side)
We expand on this broad framework by studying multiple levels of analysis, and we draw on different methodological tools, including experiments, surveys, and comparative analysis. To facilitate this work, individual teams are organized around functional tasks.
