996016 "Populism" (S) (WiSe 2016/2017)
Contents, comment
-
Populism is sometimes considered as a chameleon. It changes its colors depending on historical and social context. In some places it appears as a left-wing movement, in others it takes a right-wing shape, it can be mainstream or neo-liberal depending on the social conditions. In addition, populism is subject of many different disciplinary enquiries, such as sociological, historical, political-theoretical, or communication studies. Facing this background, it is not surprising that scholars dealing with the phenomenon do not agree on a single definition of populism. The course will provide PhD students with different concepts of populism and approaches on the topic that serve as a methodological orientation in empirical research.
