This book focuses on the role of popular music in the rise of populism in Europe, centering on the music-related processes of sociocultural normalization and the increasing prevalence of populist discourses in contemporary society.
?The great strength of this fascinating collection is that it does indeed show how popular music is linked to the rise of populism in Europe. With its subtle and sophisticated case studies and its careful framing, this book reveals the political importance of music and the cultural roots of populism.?
John Street, Emeritus Professor of Politics, University of East Anglia
"This wonderful collection shows that populism is more than just parties, movements and leaders ? it extends into popular culture as well. Theoretically-imaginative and empirically-rigorous, it considers the intersection of populism and popular music in Europe, and opens up new avenues for thinking about how populism operates in the 21st century.?
Benjamin Moffitt, Associate Professor of Politics, Australian Catholic University
?Popular Music and the Rise of Populism in Europe by Mario Dunkel and Melanie Schiller is an original and thought-provoking exploration into the entanglement of populism and popular culture. The volume presents a culture-centric lens to understand the rise of populism in contemporary Europe, thereby making a very welcome contribution to an increasingly saturated field of research. A must-read for scholars and students of populism who are interested in understanding the multifaceted dimensions of populist influences.?
Léonie de Jonge, Assistant Professor in European Politics & Society, University of Groningen
