Inhalt/e
In the era of ‘fake news’, political discourse appears to have become more accusatory and polarizing, enhancing new forms of populism.
In this seminar, we will approach this complex phenomenon of populism from multiple and integrated perspectives. We will consider its evolution and transformations through time, reflect on its main assumptions, analyze its major features, and focus on representative international examples of populist politicians.
Our critical discussions will take into consideration the use of discursive strategies and rhetorical devices that seem to characterize the language(s) of populism as they are used by different political actors (e.g. political leaders, political parties, political movements). This will allow for a better understanding of how language can be used manipulatively in the context of politics.
Literatur
Information on relevant literature will be provided in class.
