    "description": "What is the \u201cpopulist moment\u201d and what does it mean for the left?We are currently witnessing in Western Europe a \u201cpopulist moment\u201d that signals the crisis of neoliberal hegemony. The central axis of the political conflict will be between right- and left-wing populism. By establishing a frontier between \u201cthe people\u201d and \u201cthe oligarchy,\u201d a left\u2013populist strategy could bring together the manifold struggles against subordination, oppression and discrimination.\n\nThis strategy acknowledges that democratic discourse plays a crucial role in the political imaginary of our societies. And through the construction of a collective will, mobilizing common affects in defence of equality and social justice, it will be possible to combat the xenophobic policies promoted by right-wing populism.\n\nIn redrawing political frontiers, this \u201cpopulist moment\u201d points to a \u201creturn of the political\u201d after years of postpolitics. A return may open the way for authoritarian solutions\u2014through regimes that weaken liberal-democratic institutions\u2014but it could also lead to a reaffirmation and extension of democratic values",
