Populist movements are sitting firmly in the saddle of Western democracies and have conquered a significant portion of the electorate. Where do these populist movements come from and what is “populism” exactly? On Monday 25 September, 20.00, Dr Matthijs Rooduijn, Assistant Professor of Political Sociology at the University of Amsterdam, will give a free lecture on Populism in Europe. Location: Auditorium, Minderbroedersberg 4-6, Maastricht.
