Abstract "An introduction to rightwing populist movements outside of the West, looking at four key case studies, their commonalities, and differences. Populism has been on the rise globally since the global financial crisis of 2008, with few countries left entirely untouched by the phenomenon. At the same time, the specific circumstances in each country vary considerably, and its important in understanding these movements we do not assume they are all the same, even while they have some characteristics in common. Mohan and Padmanabhan take the cases of India, Turkey, Russia, and Brazil in turn, looking at how they took quite distinct journeys to similar destinations. They offer both, a better understanding of the details of each country's slide towards strongman authoritarianism, and an analysis of the common elements shared between them. An essential introduction to the rise of populism outside the West, for students of international political economy, and comparative politics"-- Provided by publisher.
