Paul Chilton, Lancaster University, UK In general, this volume offers an attractive selection of studies centered on populist politics and the representations of populism in a variety of countries. One particular merit of the book is that the chapters are short, highly focused in scope, and easy to read. Ricardo Jimenez-Yanez, Discourse & Society 32(4)
