Populism Protest and New Forms of Political Organisation Taschenbuch

The past decade saw new forms of protest in public squares around the world: from Zuccotti Park to Maidan from the Yellow Vests' roundabout occupations to the Querdenker anti-lockdown protests. The performative enactment of an unredeemed 'people' reclaiming its rightful sovereignty in such locations suggests intersections with both populism-whose meteoric rise also defined the decade-as well as new forms of political organisation that emerged in the wake of the post-2010 protest wave from 'digital parties' to 'movement parties'. This edited volume explores these intersections and the manifol d tensions underlying them drawing on numerous theoretical approaches and case studies ranging from South America to Southern Europe. With contributions by Marwan Attalah Morgane Belhadi Lluis de Nadal Andreas Eder-Ramsauer Seongcheol Kim Andy Knott Étienne Levac Marieluise Mühe Marina Prentoulis Céline Righi Héctor Ríos-Jara Florian Skelton Williames Sousa da Costa Borari and Thomás Zicman de Barros.
