PART I. DELIBERATIVE DEMOCRACY AND DEMOCRATIC PARTICIPATION -- Chapter 1. Jurgen Habermas and the communicative sovereignty of citizens -- Chapter 2. John Rawls and the constitutional identity of 'the people' -- Chapter 3. The old kid in town: excursus on participatory democracy and a "participatory conception of deliberative democracy -- PART II. CONTEMPORARY REPUBLICANISM -- Chapter 4. Popular sovereignty as popular control: Philip Pettit's republicanism -- Chapter 5. Richard Bellamy and the political constitution of the demos -- PART III. AGONISTIC DEMOCRACY -- Chapter 6. The people as hegemonic construction: Ernesto Laclau and Chantal Mouffe's radical democracy -- Chapter 7. Dogmatization and pluralization: William Connolly's sovereign people -- PART IV. POPULISM AND RADICAL DEMOCRATIC THEORIES: HOW THIN IS THE RED LINE? -- Chapter 8. Populism in contemporary political philosophy -- Chapter 9. Where the line lies, and how thin is it.

This book offers an extensive comparative analysis of populism and radical democratic theories, tracing the line dividing the respective conceptions of 'people' and 'popular sovereignty'. Whereas populism is often said to intertwine with democracy in some way, the contention of this book is that it significantly departs from democratic theory and practice, and belongs to a distinct conceptual space. It cannot be made to overlap, for instance, with "illiberal democracy", the "democratic myth", a crude electoral majoritarianism, nor can it amount to hiding undemocratic policies into properly democratic justifications. These positions, frequent as they are in the literature, are contested on the grounds of the dividing line identified, which starts unfolding at the level of the conception of 'the people' - i.e., of the sovereign - presupposed by populists and democrats. This book is of great interest to scholars involved in the study of democratic theory, contemporary challenges to democracy and the recent upsurge of populist discourse, as it helps better understand populism as a political phenomenon and more adequately defines it as a self-standing concept in political theory.
