The word populist is chucked around like a swearword these days. Like a label to be used by an embattled political establishment to dismiss those forces that are calling its worldview into question. Against this misrepresentation, the latest spiked review<https://spikedltd.cmail20.com/t/i-l-buktjut-ouultdd-y/> explores the positive and sometimes radical kernel of today’s populist surge. We have Matthew Goodwin<https://spikedltd.cmail20.com/t/i-l-buktjut-ouultdd-j/> on populism as the longing for meaningful politics; Udi Greenberg<https://spikedltd.cmail20.com/t/i-l-buktjut-ouultdd-t/> on the folly of comparing today with the 1930s; Tom Slater<https://spikedltd.cmail20.com/t/i-l-buktjut-ouultdd-i/> on why Brexit cannot be undone; Carlo Invernizzi Accetti<https://spikedltd.cmail20.com/t/i-l-buktjut-ouultdd-d/> on the techno-populism of Italy’s M5S; Miguel Murado<https://spikedltd.cmail20.com/t/i-l-buktjut-ouultdd-h/> on the rise and fall of Podemos; and Daniel Ben-Ami<https://spikedltd.cmail20.com/t/i-l-buktjut-ouultdd-k/> on the elite turn against social media.
