Anti Populism Pluralism Comparative Analysis

项目摘要

Populism, which posits 'the people' against 'the elite' is often labelled as one of the greatest contemporary challenges to liberal democracy. Namely, because of its supposed incompatibility with liberal-democratic pluralism, the understanding that political power should be widely diffused, reflecting the diversity of the political community and preventing power from accumulating in too few hands. In response to the rise of populism, a number of political, academic, and media elites have come to occupy an 'anti-populist' position, so as to defend pluralism from populist challengers. Such elites, however, have themselves beenaccused of undermining pluralism through their supposed marginalisation of dissent and demonisation of those who challenge neoliberal governance. This PhD appraises the current adversarial responses to populism through an analysis of elite anti-populist discourses, from different national contexts, for their efficacy in promoting pluralism against populism's oft alleged authoritarian tendencies, Theoretically, this PhD also represents an inquiry into whether liberal understandings of pluralism are sufficient in advancing the democratic plurality that they claim to defend, or whether other radical-democratic alternatives offer amore satisfying and robust conception. Understanding the efficacy of the responses of mainstream actors to populist challengers is central to ensuring that liberal democracy is robustly defended, in a context in which it has already been greatly destabilised by the global rise of the far-right.

民粹主义将“人民”与“精英”对立起来，常常被贴上自由民主面临的当代最大挑战之一的标签。也就是说，由于它被认为与自由民主多元化不相容，应该广泛传播政治权力的理解，反映政治共同体的多样性，防止权力积累在太少的人手中。为了应对民粹主义的兴起，一些政界、学术界和媒体精英开始占据一种反民粹主义的立场，以保护多元主义不受民粹主义挑战者的挑战。然而，这些精英自己也被指责通过所谓的边缘化异见人士和妖魔化那些挑战新自由主义治理的人来破坏多元化。本博士通过对精英反民粹主义话语的分析来评估当前对民粹主义的敌对反应，这些话语来自不同的国家背景，对于促进多元化与民粹主义经常被指控的威权倾向的有效性，理论上，本博士还代表了一种调查，即对多元化的自由主义理解是否足以推动他们声称捍卫的民主多元化，或者是否其他激进-民主替代方案提供了更令人满意和更稳健的概念。在全球极右翼势力的崛起已经严重破坏自由民主的背景下，了解主流参与者对民粹主义挑战者的回应的有效性，对于确保自由民主得到有力捍卫至关重要。
