The Internationalisation of Populism: Manifestations and Implications 

This volume brings together academics and practitioners to discuss the nexus between populism and global politics. While the rise of populist domestic politics has been the subject of significant discussion, the international links and networks of populism receives much less attention. In today’s globalised world, however, populism, cannot be fully understood without exploring its international and transational dimensions. First, it is clear populist movements and leaders identify with each other and often support each other in election campaigns. Second, it is evident that many of the demands voiced by populist parties and leaders have a foreign policy or international component. The book seeks to address this anomaly by exploring such themes as the common language and narratives of populism; the recurrent causes and drivers of populism; the use of case studies to illustrate the populist experience in countries like Brazil, USA, Germany and New Zealand; and the uneasy relationship between populism and the international rules-based order.
