Overview

The Politics of Rage is a powerful and urgent exploration of one of the most defining political phenomena of our time: the global rise of far-right populism and its threat to democratic systems. Drawing on decades of governance and policy experience, author Seán Hogan examines how populist movements have surged by tapping into deep economic insecurity, cultural anxiety, and disillusionment with political elites. Through sharp analysis and global case studies-from Trump and Brexit to Le Pen and Orbán-Hogan traces how populist leaders reshape narratives, manipulate identity politics, and challenge democratic norms. This book moves beyond headlines to uncover the roots of our current democratic crisis and poses a central question: Can the centre hold, or are we entering a new era of political extremism? Both a warning and a call to action, The Politics of Rage offers critical insight for readers who care about the future of democracy-and the choices we face in preserving it.
