GLGiacomo Loperfido

Key Points

  • The connection between populism and conspiracy theory is highlighted by personalization, which modifies how people engage with political ideas instead of them being abstract.
  • Observational analysis of cultural narratives illustrates how neoliberal practices influence the rise of both populism and conspiracy thinking.
  • Understanding these links may provide insights into political behavior, underscoring the need for deeper investigation into cultural phenomena.
