Abstract

In the concluding chapter, Bart van Klink and Ingeborg van der Geest integrate the insights obtained by the different chapters from the perspective of possible responses to populism. Analysing these insights from the perspective of logos, ethos and pathos, they discuss how the various contributions to this volume offer potential clues for responding to populist discourse. Specifically, the question will be raised how - both on the level of form and content - citizens could or should respond to the challenges populism poses to current notions of reasonable debate and liberal democracy.
