Based on an original definition of modern populism as “democratic illiberalism” and many years of meticulous research, Takis Pappas marshals extraordinary empirical evidence from Argentina, Greece, Peru, Italy, Venezuela, Ecuador, Hungary, the United States, Spain, and Brazil to develop a comprehensive theory about populism. He addresses all key issues in the debate about populism and answers significant questions of great relevance for today’s liberal democracy, including: • What is modern populism and how can it be differentiated from comparable phenomena like nativism and autocracy? • Where in Latin America has populism become most successful? Where in Europe did it emerge first? Why did its rise to power in the United States come so late? • Is Trump a populist and, if so, could he be compared best with Venezuela’s Chávez, France’s Le Pens, or Turkey’s Erdoğan? • Why has populism thrived in post-authoritarian Greece but not in Spain? And why in Argentina and not in Brazil? • Can populism ever succeed without a charismatic leader? If not, what does leadership tell us about how to challenge populism? • Who are “the people” who vote for populist parties, how are these “made” into a group, and what is in their minds? • Is there a “populist blueprint” that all populists use when in power? And what are the long-term consequences of populist rule? • What does the expansion, and possibly solidification, of populism mean for the very nature and future of contemporary democracy? Populism and Liberal Democracy will change the ways the reader understands populism and imagines the prospects of liberal democracy.

Both dictatorship and democracy were essentially new concepts of political rule in Germany after World War I. It was true that suffrage had been increasingly extended after the revolution of 1848–1849, and more citizens (male citizens, that is) were entitled to vote in Imperial Germany than, for instance, in Great Britain. Dictatorship, too, was a new form of political control, at least in Germany. The term ‘people’ was to become a standard formula for the self-understanding of German politics after 1918. In its shades of meaning, it saw the people as a social organism, rather than as an ethnic community. ‘People’ referred to the many. It described the social commitment with which a good community was supposed to be built. An inquiry into Reichstag, and the German parliament and incidents and rebellions surrounding it concludes this article.

The pace of technological advance across science is staggeringly fast. Our ability to translate some of the potential developments in technology into concepts/products/devices that can assist dentists in caring for patients is key to ensuring that both the profession and the people we care for derive full benefit from these new technologies. This overview will focus in four areas: research and how we gather and interpret data to inform health care; the diagnosis and prevention of disease; planning care; and new concepts in terms of achieving desired health outcomes for patients. Some of the technological advances will be in their infancy and others close to or indeed clinical reality. The objective of this overview is to show where we are in terms of the cutting edge of technology and to whet the appetite for things to come.

The workshop sets out to examine the contribution of merchants and their language to "The making of commercial law". We wanted to understand the influence of travelling merchants and changes of language, assuming that both factors have produced fertile soil for new concepts of commercial law. This paper intends to focus on the latter, the language changes, and chooses the written language of the Lübeck law as case study. Its oldest sources are in Latin, which is replaced by Low German in a slow process between 1250 and 1400, but the language of the central law books changes very suddenly between 1263 and 1267. In the 16th century High German established itself, and when the jurists of the 17th century wrote about the Ius lubecense Latin was in use again. Two questions shall be examined: Why did these language changes occur, and more importantly, how did the law change when expressed in the environment of a new language?<br/> All translation changes the content of the translated text to a certain degree, and this is especially true for translations of legal writings. The paper will study changes in the meaning of words and ask if certain languages were better adapted than others for expressing the complicated issues of commercial law. A few significant examples from the sources shall be scrutinized closely. Did the legal concepts and institutes, e.g.the technical terms of new contract types, travel together with the words denominating them? Which groups of legal texts were quick to change, which other ones were reluctant?<br/> The larger context of the text production is equally important. Who was able to master the old and the new language? Can we witness processes of professionalization? How did the horizon change once the new language was used? Who and where were the people one could now (no longer) communicate with? Im Rahmen einer Konferenz über die Wechselwirkungen zwischen Änderungen des Recht und der Sprache kam diesem Artikel die Aufgabe zu, die Sprachwechsel der Statuten des lübischen Rechts von den ältesten schriftlichen Zeugnissen um 1224 bis zum Kommentar zum lübischen Recht von David Mevius (1642/43) zu verfolgen. Die ältesten Quellen sind lateinisch. Doch bereits zwischen 1263 und 1267, sozusagen von einem Tag auf den anderen, wechselte der Rat für gut 300 Jahre zum Niederdeutschen. Das erneuerte Stadtrecht von 1586 wurde dann in der hochdeutschen Fassung in Kraft gesetzt, und als die Juristen im 17. Jh. sich des Gegenstands annahmen, taten sie das wieder auf Latein. Es geht um zwei Fragen: Warum erfolgten diese Sprachwechsel, und wie änderte sich das Recht durch den Transfer in ein neues sprachliches Umfeld?

Populism is a phenomenon that has been acquiring great relevance over recent years in the United States and Europe. Literature on the subject has identified the existence of a populist style that also affects political communication. The aim of this article is to analyze the structure of issues and the functions of messages circulated by a populist party in order to determine the presence and incidence of this style’s main components. The methodology is based on a quantitative analysis of the content of the Twitter profiles of the Spanish political party Podemos and its leader, Pablo Iglesias, during the 2016 Spanish elections. Totally, 2,612 tweets were analyzed. The results allow the identification of a strategy of complementarity, which appears as a new component in the communication style of populism in the digital environment. Podemos is also seen to lean toward antielitism and its leader toward the communicative construction of “the people.”
