For a Left Populism

Book • 2018
This book advocates for a left-wing populism as a means to challenge neoliberal hegemony.

Mouffe argues that traditional social democratic parties have failed to address the concerns of marginalized groups.

She proposes a strategy that embraces conflict and antagonism as inherent aspects of politics.

The book suggests that left populism can mobilize collective passions and create a counter-hegemonic force.

It aims to construct a 'people' united against common adversaries, fostering democratic participation.

Mouffe's work offers a framework for reimagining progressive politics in an era of political polarization.
