Populism as a phenomenon seems to instantiate perennial issues besetting rhetoric (e.g., the charges of manipulation, exclusive reliance on opinion over knowledge, and abuse of emotional appeals), yet relatively little research on populism has emerged from the discipline of rhetoric.

“The volume is intended to bring rhetoric closer to scholars of populism, and, on the other hand, to bring populism closer to scholars of rhetoric. … the relevance of the rhetorical dimension of populism is valuable and constitutes the most significant value of this monograph. … Therefore, it might be valuable for readers who come from non-rhetorical backgrounds to familiarize themselves with this term in order to understand that the book address rhetoric.” (Agnieszka Kampka, Res Rhetorica, Vol. 10 (1), 2023)
