Volume 4. Populism in Britain.


THIS BOOK IS VOLUME 1. POPULISM IN EUROPE


For some people in Britain, before 23 June 2016, populist politicians like Nigel Farage were nothing but comets crossing the political orbit every century or so, and whose actual influence on politics would always be deemed both insignificant and inconsequential. That was before the EU referendum took place.

Farage was no comet. The Brexit vote was no accident. A combination of unfortunate factors and events eventually led to the 23 June vote that resulted in the Brexit win. Everyone now accepts, for instance, that the senior campaigners in favour of the Remain vote, during the British EU referendum campaign, were perceived by the public as the “Project Fear” team and their fearful language somehow discredited them, whilst the Leave vote campaigners used a largely populist rhetoric, claiming that THEY were speaking up for ordinary working people and THEY were defending them against the fat-cats. 52% of the British voters believed them.

Could Brexit and its accurately predicted catastrophic outcome be the final drop that will change the way people vote for the decades to come in Europe, and to some extent maybe, all over the world? Or could it actually broaden the populists’ message of widespread insecurity, mass immigration and economic crisis, and make it even stronger than ever before, thanks to the likes of Farage and Trump?

Was Brexit only the tip of the populist iceberg? Are there any other underlying reasons why the populist vote is trending across Europe and in America, whilst Latin America is going the opposite direction and turning its back to populism? More generally, what makes people vote for populist politicians such as Jeremy Corbyn, Bernie Sanders, Nigel Farage or Donald Trump? What makes them serious contenders compared to other mainstream politicians?

For the last few decades or so, in many countries across the globe, people have been tempted by the populist vote with promises of more democracy, less corruption, more transparency, more reforms, less elites, less experts and more power to the people . But how has it actually materialised, so far?

This is not “yet another book about Brexit and the EU referendum”. It is not about whether one side was right and the other wrong. This series is about populism. It will explain whether the British EU referendum result will have any impact on the United Kingdom only, or further across the pond. It matters because its potential impact could change the lives of millions of people, if not billions, all around the world, whether economically, politically or geopolitically.

This series will report on the way populism has been spreading so far in Europe, in the United States and in Latin America in recent years, and try to find the facts that might illustrate whether the populist trend is still spreading or finally coming to a slowdown, maybe even a halt.
