BARROS, Sebastián. Radical inclusion and conflict in the formation of the people's populism. CONfines relacion. internaci. ciencia política [online]. 2006, vol.2, n.3, pp.65-73. ISSN 1870-3569.

This article reviews the concept of populism as presented by Ernesto Laclau. I argue that Laclau's definition needs to clarify the reference to "the excluded" in order to isolate the specificity of populism. By bringing into the discussion an argument about the conflictive nature of politics, I contend that populism can be defined as the moment of the eruption of the excluded. In other words, the idea of radical inclusion means that populist discourse provokes the transformation of the institutional order.

Palabras llave : populism; radical inclusion; ideology; hegemony; Laclau; Rancière.
