这篇文章主张对欧洲民粹主义政治的研究进行文化转向。整合了政治社会学、政治心理学和媒体研究三个领域的见解，提出了一个新的多学科框架，以对有利于民粹主义政党选举成功的特定文化条件进行理论推导。通过这个镜头，第四次民粹主义浪潮应该被视为一场为捍卫传统文化身份而发出的喧闹的、反世界主义的反革命。民粹主义政党首先在政治上动员了长期挥之不去的文化不满，并成功地表达了对文化变革的强烈反对，这反映了欧洲民主国家根深蒂固的、基于价值观的巨大分歧，这种分歧在很大程度上超过了经济分裂。虽然民粹主义反革命是由社交媒体时代深刻变化的传播条件产生的，但它的情感力量可以用威权主义的政治心理进行最好的理论推导：作为一种新型的威权文化反抗。
The article argues for a cultural turn in the study of populist politics in Europe. Integrating insights from three fields—political sociology, political psychology, and media studies—a new, multi-disciplinary framework is proposed to theorize particular cultural conditions favorable to the electoral success of populist parties. Through this lens, the fourth wave of populism should be viewed as a “noisy”, anti-cosmopolitan counter-revolution in defense of traditional cultural identity. Reflective of a deep-seated, value-based great divide in European democracies that largely trumps economic cleavages, populist parties first and foremost politically mobilize long lingering cultural discontent and successfully express a backlash against cultural change. While the populist counter-revolution is engendered by profoundly transformed communicative conditions in the age of social media, its emotional force can best be theorized with the political psychology of authoritarianism: as a new type of authoritarian cultural revolt.
