description Over the past few years, several Western countries have witnessed the emergence of populist political formations. The article situates these developments in the context of the post-2008 recession austerity politics, and argues that the emergence of populist platforms reflects a 'crisis of hegemony' of the neoliberal paradigm of capital accumulation that had dominated Western capitalist societies since the mid-1970s. Focusing specifically on recent developments in the United States under Trump’s presidency, the article argues that we might be entering an age of 'authoritarian neoliberalism' in which capital accumulation is sustained less through consensus and more through coercion—namely, in the form of increasing criminalization, discipline, and surveillance of “undeserving” social groups.
