Rezensionen

"Conspiracy and Populism: The Politics of Misinformation, Eirikur Bergmann, goes beyond theUnited States to track belief in conspiracy thinking globally. ... [It]provides considerable summary of important political conspiracies as well as innovative andcompelling theses to explain their popularity, their functions, and their dangers. Anyone who is interested in or working on contemporary political conspiracies willwant to read [this book]. It will also be of interest to anyone trying to understand the global rise of thepopulist right in historical context." (Judith Grant, New Political Science, June 28, 2019)

"Conspiracy & Populism enters into dialogue with political science, communication studies and psychology. It offers a comprehensive introduction to the study of CTs, their links to populism and their potential impact on traditional political processes. Thanks to its interdisciplinary approach and its competent review of the literature, Bergmann's work will prove particularly useful to students and early career researchers interested in taking populism and CTs seriously." (Tatiana Coutto, The International Spectator, Vol. 54 (2), 2019)
