Frank Furedi: In Defence of Populism

<p>Sebastian and Hilary are joined by sociologist and author Frank Furedi to discuss his book In Defence of Populism. They explore what populism actually means, why it is so often misunderstood, and how it relates to democracy, identity, and representation. The conversation also touches on elite culture, education, and the growing sense that many people feel politically unheard.</p><p>Recommendations:</p><p><a href="https://www.politybooks.com/bookdetail?book_slug=in-defence-of-populism--9781509571673" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">In Defence of Populism</a></p><p><a href="https://frankfuredi.substack.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Frank&#39;s Substack</a></p><p><a href="https://www.paramountplus.com/gb/shows/the-madison/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">The Madison</a></p><p><a href="https://www.channel4.com/programmes/the-count-of-monte-cristo" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">The Count of Monte Cristo</a></p><p>Check out the SDP website or get in touch: </p><p>www.sdp.org.uk</p><p>hilary.salt@sdp.org.uk</p><p>sebastian.moore@sdp.org.uk</p>
