This books explores the rise of civilizational populism throughout
the world, and its consequences. Civilizational populism posits
that democracy ought to be based upon enacting the 'people's will',
yet it adds a new and troubling dimension to populism's thin
ideology: a civilization based classification of peoples and
division of society. Today, we increasingly find not conflict
between civilizations, but conflict within states over their
civilizational identity. From Western Europe to Turkey, and from
India and Pakistan to Indonesia, populists are increasingly
employing a civilization based classification of peoples in order
to define the identities of 'the people' and their perceived
enemies. This book is the first to examine civilizational populism
as global phenomenon rather than a uniquely Western form of
politics. Through a series of case studies, the book examines the
role played by religion in forming civilizational identities, but
also investigates the often deleterious consequences of
civilizational populism entering the political mainstream.
