Abstract

Artykuł zawiera przegląd literatury światowej nt. populizmu (pop.) jako zjawiska społecznego o szerokim i rosnącym zasięgu. Omówiono istotę, przyczyny i odmiany pop., z uwypukleniem jego wpływu na gospodarkę. Pop. został zdefiniowany jako sposób uprawiania polityki przeciwstawiający zwykłych ludzi elitom i realizujący rękami swoich przywódców „wolę ludu” jako całości. Podłożem do rozwoju pop. jest poczucie frustracji, zawodu i gniewu wśród dużych grup społecznych. Przywódcy pop. mobilizują zwolenników wykorzystując zaniedbania politycznego establishmentu dot. ważnych spraw społecznych i obiecując proste rozwiązania złożonych problemów. Będący u władzy pop. przywódcy realizują politykę nastawioną na krótkookresowe korzyści kosztem długookresowego rozwoju i deformują instytucje liberalnej demokracji. Nowsze badania zidentyfikowały okresy rządów pop. w kilkudziesięciu krajach od początku XX wieku i oceniły ich wpływ na długofalowe wyniki gospodarcze i poziom życia jako zdecydowanie negatywny. Na tym tle ukazano politykę populistyczną, która była prowadzona w Polsce w latach 2016-2023 w sposób, który może sprowadzić negatywne skutki podobne do tych, jakie wystąpiły w innych krajach.
