Despite the recent wealth of literature on national populism,
research has often overlooked one crucial aspect: the border. This
innovative book bridges these key concepts, providing a new
theoretical conceptualisation of the interplay between populism,
nationalism and territorial borders. In this book, borders are not
considered as mere institutional boundaries between nation states;
on the contrary, the authors adopt a multi-dimensional view of
borders as narratives, issues and territorial spaces of
mobilisation. Reconsidering the contemporary politicisation of
borders in Western Europe, the authors investigate how national
populism deals with territorial borders and the various meanings
they embody. Empirical case studies focusing on the Swiss
borderlands explore parties' programmes and discourses,
representatives' attitudes, as well as public opinion and voting
behaviour, offering key insights into how political actors and
citizens react to trends such as growing transnational flows,
globalisation and European integration. This timely book, based on
original party sources and surveys, will be an essential resource
for students and scholars of political science, political
sociology, border studies, European integration, Euroscepticism and
Swiss politics. Its context-oriented analysis will also prove
beneficial to practitioners and representatives involved in
cross-border cooperation.
