Politics and Populism

Brought to you by Hopkins at Home

Tuesday, May 5, 2020 to May 19, 2020
Coursera Lecture + Live Discussion
3 weeks

Discussion 5:30 - 6:30 PM EDT via Zoom.

Around the world, from Italy to Brazil, and from Hungary to the United States, populist candidates and governments are fundamentally changing the political landscape. In this course, we explore the nature of populism; investigate whether populism poses an existential threat to liberal democracy; explore the causes of the populist rise; and discuss what strategies might allow non-populist political actors to push back.

Join Yascha Mounk as he guides you through this exploration of politics and populism.
