Abstract

Over the last decade, the economist Guy Standing has written on the emergence of a new class of citizens – the ‘precariat’ – who lack economic security and stable occupational identities. But can the concept of precarity also help explain the success of populist parties? Drawing on a new study, Lorenza Antonucci, Carlo D’Ippoliti, Laszlo Horvath and André Krouwel assess how precarity affects support for populist parties in France and the Netherlands.
