National and transnational

Chapter 32 in Research Handbook on Populism, 2024, pp 385-396 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Despite the growing interest in different types of populism, less attention has been paid to transnational populism in particular, which remains an underresearched phenomenon and is often even perceived as a paradox. This chapter examines the specificity of transnational populism by differentiating it from populism on the national level and other forms of populism across and beyond the nation-state. In doing so it introduces a conceptual framework for identifying three different types of populism across and beyond the nation-state based on the prefixes inter-, trans- and post-. In contrast to the assumption that a transnational populism abandons the nation-state, it argues that there is an inherent duality in the understanding of transnationalism which entails that the nation-state is not deleted from the equation. Finally, the chapter explores a set of empirical cases that have been regarded as examples of transnational populism and briefly assesses them based on the suggested framework.
