The main area of sustained populist growth in recent decades has
been Western Europe, where populist parties have not only endured
longer than expected, but have increasingly begun to enter
government. Focusing on three high-profile cases in Italy and
Switzerland - the Popolo della Liberta (PDL), Lega Nord (LN) and
Schweizerische Volkspartei (SVP) - Populists in Power is the first
in-depth comparative study to examine whether these parties are
indeed doomed to failure in office as many commentators have
claimed. Albertazzi and McDonnell's findings run contrary to much
of the received wisdom. Based on extensive original research and
fieldwork, they show that populist parties can be built to last,
can achieve key policy victories and can survive the experience of
government, without losing the support of either the voters or
those within their parties. Contributing a new perspective to
studies in populist politics, Populists in Power is essential
reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students, as well as
scholars interested in modern government, parties and politics.
