Populism is an expression of anger; its appeal stems from being presented as thesolution to disorder in our times. The vision of democracy, society and the economyit offers is coherent and attractive. At a time when the words and slogans of the lefthave lost much of their power to inspire, Pierre Rosanvallon takes populism for whatit is: the rising ideology of the 21st century. In The Populist Century he develops arigorous theoretical account of populism, retraces its history from the mid-19thcentury to the present, offers a well-reasoned critique of populism and outlines arobust democratic alternative.This wide-ranging and rigorous account of the theory and practice of populism will be of great interest to students and scholars in politics and the social sciences and to anyone concerned with the key political questions of our time.

Economic inequalities are among the greatest human rights challenges the world faces today due to the past four decades of neoliberal policy dominance. Globally, there are now over 2,000 billionaires, while 3.4 billion people live below the poverty line of US $5.50 per day. Many human rights scholars and practitioners read these statistics with alarm, asking what impact such extreme inequalities have on realizing human rights and what role, if any, should human rights have in challenging them? This edited volume examines these questions from multiple disciplinary perspectives, seeking to uncover the relationships between human rights and economic inequalities, and the barriers and pathways to greater economic equality and full enjoyment of human rights for all. The volume is a unique contribution to the emerging literature on human rights and economic inequality, as it is interdisciplinary, global in reach and extends to several under-researched areas in the field.

Human rights --- Income distribution. --- Equality --- Economic aspects. --- Distribution of income --- Income inequality --- Inequality of income --- Distribution (Economic theory) --- Disposable income --- Basic rights --- Civil rights (International law) --- Rights, Human --- Rights of man --- Human security --- Transitional justice --- Truth commissions --- Egalitarianism --- Inequality --- Social equality --- Social inequality --- Political science --- Sociology --- Democracy --- Liberty --- Law and legislation --- Equality Economic aspects --- Economic aspects
