Populism, fundamentalism, and identityfighting talk /[electronic resource] :by Peter Herriot. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2020. - viii, 157 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Introduction -- Chapter 1. What's the issue? Modernity, reaction, and self -- Chapter 2. What are they? Populism and fundamentalism- Chapter 3. Who am I? The self -- Chapter 4. Who are we? Social identity -- Chapter 5. Who are they? The other -- Chapter 6. What's the story? Fighting talk Chapter 7. Who's in charge? Leaders and led -- Chapter 8. What's the secret? The role of technology -- Chapter 9. What to do? Common sense solutions -- Chapter 10. Prescriptions or pressure points? -- Chapter 11. When reality dawns -- Chapter 12. When 'Us' cracks up -- Chapter 13. When 'They' answer back.

What can populism and fundamentalism possibly have in common? Peter Herriot argues that contrary to their apparent differences, these human phenomena are similar in two basic respects. First, they are both reactions against the complexities of the modern world in general, and its current crisis in particular. They propose instead a return to a mythical golden age, supposedly marked by purity and simplicity. Second, they both work in the same way psychologically. Using social identity theory, Herriot shows how both populism and fundamentalism create constant conflict by contrasting a virtuous 'Us' with a stereotypically evil 'Them'. Contemporary case studies illustrate this process at work, and Herriot raises various issues as a basis for discussion, and concludes with hope.
