In 2016 the cohesion of the European Union was tested as never before. Popular dissatisfaction with the national and European neoliberal orders – culminating in Brexit – gave an impetus to populist radical right forces. Nevertheless, several elections and referendums checked this trend to some extent.
transform! 2017 critically examines key questions. Could populism also work as a political concept for the left? Is the polarity between left and right outdated? In this respect, this year’s volume contains detailed studies of the social composition and dynamics of populist-right voters and non-voters.
