概要：By almost any measure the European Union (EU) has been a great success. But that is not how the political parties on the far right see things. Across Europe, a semi-coherent populist program has emerged that bundles controversial policy issues that are not intrinsically related into a shared story about how the EU and its “bureaucrats” are conspiring with “globalists” to undermine national sovereignty and take away the rights of ordinary people. It is a facts-free jumble of invective, but that is irrelevant. Populism is a rhetorical approach to the contest for political power rather than a coherent program for change. Once the issues get bundled and repeated again and again, it starts to look like an ideology. The talk focuses on the reality of recent immigration trends and how populist parties have leveraged anger to win elections and sow political disunity within the European Union.
