The book analyzes various forms of populism, its causes and consequences. It further looks at how industrialization, economic growth, and movement of people led to conditions which contributed to inequalities, fueling populist sentiments and social conflict around the globe. Tripathi concludes that populism has moved from the fringes to the mainstream of politics, and is here to stay, given factors such as growing competition for resources, population increase, climate change, and migration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe book will appeal to students, scholars, and researchers of political science and neighboring disciplines, as well as policy-makers interested in a better understanding of modern populism and its roots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWritten in a graceful, informative style, this book explores the rise of populism on the global scene and exposes its dangers.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eMark Juergensmeyer, Distinguished Professor Emeritus of Sociology and Global Studies, University of California, Santa Barbara, and author of Global Rebellion: Religious Challenges to the Secular State\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDeepak Tripathi provides the first lucid and comprehensive analysis of a political phenomenon that engulfs many states and societies today.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eIlan Pappe, Professor of History, and Director of the European Centre for Palestine Studies, University of Exeter\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis wide-ranging and clear-sighted book gives a historically-informed account of how populism went mainstream.
