Klappentext zu „Technopopulism “
Technocratic appeals to expertise and populist invocations of 'the people' have become mainstays of political competition in established democracies. This development is best understood as the emergence of technopopulism-a new political logic that is being superimposed on the traditional struggle between left and right. Political movements and actors-such as Italy's Five Star Movement and France's La Républiqe En Marche-combine technocratic and populist appeals in a variety of ways, as do more established parties that are adapting to the particular set of incentives and constraints implicit in this new, unmediated form of politics. In the first book-length treatment of the phenomenon of technopopulism, we combine theoretical and historical approaches, offering a systematic definition of the concept of technopopulism, while also exploring a number of salient contemporary examples. This book provides a detailed account of the emergence of this new political logic, as well as a discussion of its troubling consequences for existing democratic regimes. It ends by considering some possible remedies that go beyond the simplistic idea that in the right 'dose' populism and technocracy can counter-balance one another.

Pressezitat
Bickerton and Invernizzi Accetti offer a compelling analysis of the democratic predicament. They also raise important questions about why political ideologies have lost their influence, why political parties have become so disconnected, and why democratic institutions rely so heavily on the existence of intermediates between the voters, politicians and public policy ... Technopopulism is a great provocation that leaves the reader wanting even more help in understanding the challenges democratic systems are facing. Erik Jones, Survival
