针对鲁埃达的问题，本文解释了民粹主义的政治战略方法（PSA），并强调了其分析优势，随着世界各地民粹主义政府的出现，这一优势变得更加重要。PSA通过强调个人主义领导人的核心作用来确定民粹主义的核心，这些领导人倾向于以机会主义的方式运作，而不是始终如一地追求纲领或意识形态方向。PSA在当今特别有用，因为学者们最紧迫的任务是阐明民粹主义首席执行官的政治策略及其有问题的影响，特别是民粹主义对民主的威胁。
Responding to Rueda’s questions, this essay explains the political-strategic approach (PSA) to populism and highlights its analytical strengths, which have become even more important with the emergence of populist governments across the world. PSA identifies populism’s core by emphasizing the central role of personalistic leaders who tend to operate in opportunistic ways, rather than consistently pursuing programmatic or ideological orientations. PSA is especially useful nowadays, when scholars’ most urgent task is to elucidate the political strategies of populist chief executives and their problematic repercussions, especially populism’s threat to democracy.
