Value: ?141,454 Exploring left-wing populism in an age of anti-politics

Left-wing populism is a significant trend in European politics, yet it is largely overlooked in academic studies of populism. Keeping this in mind, the study has three aims. The first is to carry out an in-depth empirical investigation of left-wing populism in contemporary Britain in two social domains: political parties on the left and left-wing “celebrity activism”, such as the practices/discourses of left-wing media personalities such as Owen Jones and Laurie Penny. Second, the team will critically interrogate the politics of left-wing populism by mapping the dynamics of inclusion and exclusion, particularly around gender and race, that shape and sustain it. Third, they hope to contribute to prevailing theoretical debates about populism by offering a more robust, complex and nuanced conceptualisation of this phenomenon.
