Abstract

This chapters analyzes the similarities and differences between fascism and populism. Differently from fascism that is confined to a particular moment in history and that later become postfascism, populism has emerged in different historical constellations. Like fascists, populists construct the people as one, have charismatic leaders, and face enemies, yet they do not use violence to purge the nation from the other and their legitimacy lies in winning elections. Could right-wing populism that use race and ethnicity to construct the people and its enemies and praise paramilitary groups mutate into postfascism?
