But this is a mistake.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe real story of populism is an account of enlightenment and liberation; it is the story of democracy itself, of its ever-widening promise of a decent life for all. Taking us from the tumultuous 1890s, when the radical left-wing US Populist Party fought plutocrats, to the triumphs of reformers under Roosevelt and Truman, Frank reminds us how much we owe to the populist ethos.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrank also shows that elitist groups have reliably detested populism, lashing out at working-class concerns; todays moral panic in liberal circles is only the latest expression. Frank pummels the elites, revisits the movements provocative politics, and declares true populism to be the language of promise and optimism. \u003ci\u003ePeople Without Power\u003c\/i\u003e is a ringing affirmation of a movement that, Frank shows us, is not the problem of our times, but the solution.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67962271138080,"sku":"NEW1912854228","price":16.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/81ETfNBhyKL.jpg?v=1792893277","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/en-gb\/products\/people-without-power-1912854228","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
