      abstract = {This book provides the first systematic and comparative  analysis of the intersections of populism and science in  Europe, from the perspective of political sociology.  Populism is the object of rich scholarly debate over its  definition and the best way to approach its study. But  until now, little attention has been paid to the  relationships between populism and science. Recently, the  Covid-19 crisis has exposed the contradictions in this  relationship, and this book combines an analysis of the  theoretical aspects of the relationship between populism  and science with rigorous empirical research. The  theoretical perspectives show populism as a thin-ideology,  as discourse and performance, and as a political logic,  consider both right-wing and left-wing populism, and focus  on leaders as well as citizens. The book also offers an  overview of controversies within different fields of  "science" including case studies on food science, climate  change, vaccination, gender theory, COVID-19, and  environmental issues. The book will be of interest to  scholars and students of a number of social science  disciplines, including political sociology, political  science and political psychology.},
