Political Economic Determinants of Populist Voting

Abstract

The first panel in this section will explore the economic aspects of populist support. Amongst other things, it will test the hypothesis that populism both drives and is driven by the transformation of the economy on the global, regional, and domestic levels (the demand side of populism). In addition, we are open to alternative explanations to populist voting or populist attitudes, including issues surrounding shifts in cultural values, institutions, and other triggers.
