26:02Now PlayingFrom Europe and the US to Argentina: ever more voters are turning to politicians who promise a radical break with mainstream politics. Populists and nationalists curry favor with simplistic solutions for complex problems ranging from inflation and inequality to migration and climate change. Bashing Islam propelled Dutch firebrand Geert Wilders to victory.
Argentina‘s Javier Milei wielded a chainsaw to demonstrate his intentions, while Donald Trump promises to spend his first day in office as a dictator. Is outrage the new recipe for success? Have elites failed…or could they enjoy a comeback like Poland’s centrists? We’re asking: Chainsaw Politics: Cutting down the democratic establishment?
Our guests:
Matthew Karnitschnig is Politico’s chief Europe correspondent, based in Berlin.
Rob Savelberg, correspondent for Germany and Central Europe at the Dutch newspaper de Telegraaf
Karolina Wigura is a Member of the Board of Kultura Liberalna Foundation, which publishes one of Poland’s leading weeklies, and Associate Professor in Sociology at the Univ of Warsaw
