Introduction: A Snapshot and a Story
Keyword(s):
Contemporary politicians in places as diverse as the United States, Spain, and the Philippines have built their political careers around claims that their society is in decline and they alone can restore it. These claims often depend not on evidence but on emotion and involve the interpretation of a snapshot using an emotionally resonant story. This rhetoric has a long history, most notably in the Roman Republic, the Roman Empire, and in later European states that claim a connection to Rome.
