In this profound and influential work, Ernesto Laclau extends the philosophical and political inquiry that he began in Hegemony and Socialist Strategy. Here, Laclau delves into the formation of popular identities and the emergence of the people as a collective actor. Through a masterful blend of theoretical analysis and a wealth of empirical references drawn from diverse historical and geographical contexts, Laclau provides a critical appraisal of the existing literature on populism. He exposes its reliance on the theories of mass psychology, such as those of Taine and Freud. Moreover, he elucidates the relationship between populism and democracy, as well as the logic of representation. By distinguishing his approach from that of Zizek, Hardt, Negri, and Ranciere, Laclau offers a unique perspective on the topic. This book is an indispensable resource for anyone seeking to understand the complexities of political identities in a world characterized by figures like Trump, Farage, Le Pen, Sanders, Iglesias, and Mélenchon.
