  • The Rise of Populism.
    Populism is rapidly rising around the globe. It’s more than political resistance to change - its impact can be felt across the United States, Europe, Australia and beyond.
    It’s taken shape in the form of Brexit, Donald Trump and One Nation as traditional national states try to retain their power in a more globalised world. The rise of populism is forcing us to rethink foreign policy, business strategy, and human rights issues.
    As economic uncertainties grow, a rejuvenation of right wing politics continues to gain momentum, forcing us to reconsider who we are as a society.
    But is the rise of populism all bad? Is this shift in politics temporary, and is it an opportunity to realign democracy’s values?

    In a democracy, why is populism necessarily a bad thing? It's the will of the majority of people, not the will of the elitist minority!

      @gentlemanvontweed7147 5 років тому +10

      Except the majority don't often really know what they want. They have good ideas, but fail to think the process through - which leads to situations like the current Brexit negotiations.

      There is no "will of the people". In fact the one who coined that was an Elitist himself, Rousseau.

      @@gentlemanvontweed7147politicians should listen to what people want and need. Then they are supposed to implement this in the most efficient and helpful way possible so as to satisfy the demands of the people.

      The majority aren’t the experts on any given issue nor do they understand the laws and system they live under and yet they ultimately have control over the outcome. It doesn’t work too well when many people are basing their decisions on misinformation or disinformation and hold a world view based off of conspiracy theories and lazily blame the sitting government for everything rather then understand how we have arrived to the problem.
      On the flip side a corrupt dictator or small group is absolute corruption.

    One of the most common complaints heard is that Politicians are out of touch with ordinary people.
    Perhaps we could go back to a formerly successful system where unpaid Politicians politic-ed for half a day and worked at a regular paid [and hopefully relevant and honest] job for the other half.
    We would save a heap of Taxpayers' tax money, probably get more done in the same time by Politicians genuinely interested in the job and not big bucks and perks and the matter of being out of touch would no longer exist.
    The only time one generally sees a Politician in the flesh is when he/she campaigns for your vote.

      From an American perspective: The experts and elites got us into Iraq. They missed all the 9.11 warning signs. They passed an insane crime bill which created the worlds highest prison population. They did nothing to stop the mortgage crisis. They funded gain of function research in the Wuhan lab and then lied about it. They strike down legal abortion. They do insider trading in the stock market. Tell me why am I supposed to be afraid of populism? These elites want my unearned trust. Whenever we trust them we end up poorer, in jail, or dead

    I saw a market research company concluded : those surveyed thought the US is 17% Muslim, the real figure is 1%. By all means rubbish this statistic. I'm using it to critique populism. The populist wouldn't contradict those surveyed. Never contradict popular perception.

    It's not that complicated everything back to economy. People vote for politicians but don't know anything about economics and finance which just a minority understand and use that to keep others in dark.

      Patrick Rogers I don’t get what you mean by that? You said you challenge them to a debate not that you wanted to show them your view point. I’m pretty sure that teachers lie all the time the amount of questions we’ll ask just to be deflected with some rubbish is uncountable especially in more controversial subjects such as religion.

    Extraction of third world countries natural resources by western cultures guarantees the people will mirage to those western countries because of the wealth those resources have generated. In other words capitalism is the root cause of this problem.
