Nos leaders d’opinion ont une théorie pour expliquer les comportements de certains de nos concitoyens, qui exaltent la sagesse des foules ― et, cela va de soi, sont racistes, sexistes et homophobes. Ces égarés, assurent-ils, agissent sous l’emprise d’une doctrine rétrograde, le « populisme » ; et leurs adeptes sont des bourrins incultes qui ont une dent contre leurs congénères instruits. Le populisme est en guerre contre la pensée moderne et le progrès. Il est complice de la diffusion du mal, pour ne pas dire qu’il est le mal lui-même.La façon dont nos progressistes autoproclamés mésusent et abusent désormais du mot « populisme » prouve qu’ils se sont résolument tournés contre leur héritage démocratique. La démocratie pose un problème, expliquent-ils, parce qu’elle permet au peuple de faire fi de l’autorité des experts.Le paysage politique est cul par-dessus tête, mais le combat reste le même : le vrai sujet, ce sont les privilèges des élites, et le populisme est peut-être le remède permettant de nous en délivrer.

"[This book] reinterprets the American political tradition from the colonial period to modern times, placing issues of race relations, immigration, and presidentialism in the context of shifting notions of empire and citizenship. Today, while the U.S. enjoys tremendous military and economic power, citizens are increasingly insulated from everyday decision-making. This was not always the case. America, [the author] argues, began as a settler society grounded in an ideal of freedom as the exercise of continuous self-rule?one that joined direct political participation with economic independence. However, this vision of freedom was politically bound to the subordination of marginalized groups, especially slaves, Native Americans, and women. These practices of liberty and exclusion were not separate currents, but rather two sides of the same coin. However, at crucial moments, social movements sought to imagine freedom without either subordination or empire. By the mid-twentieth century, these efforts failed, resulting in the rise of hierarchical state and corporate institutions. This new framework presented national and economic security as society?s guiding commitments and nurtured a continual extension of America?s global reach. [The author] envisions a democratic society that revives settler ideals, but combines them with meaningful inclusion for those currently at the margins of American life."

"So far most scholars have studied conspiracy theories within national frameworks only. Focusing on the United States and the Middle East, two regions entangled in multiple ways, this book draws attention to the fact that conspiracist visions are transnational narratives that travel between and connect different cultures"--Provided by publisher.

They were the two volcanic surprises in world politics in 2016 - Brexit, the UK vote to leave the European Union in June, and the election of Donald Trump as the 45th President of the United States in November. Neither was predicted by the polls, neither pleased the establishment in both countries. Both will have long-term ramifications, good and bad, for decades to come.But what role did the media on both sides of the Atlantic play as midwives to these 'populist' revolts? Was it wary enough? Did the media, in all its various forms, act as watchdog or lapdog? With the 2017 UK General Election results fresh in our minds, this is a timely and cogent analysis of how we arrived at where we are.This book - the 20th in the acclaimed Abramis 'hackademic' series (mixing academics and journalists between the same covers) attempts to answer those big questions and more.The contributors include some of journalism and academia's most distinguished names, from the introduction by Channel 4's Jon Snow through to the postscript by the BBC's Nick Robinson
