Still the Age of Populism?
A RESET CONFERENCE
April 22-23, 2022
Norman Hall 0110 Conference Center

- Has the populist surge passed its highwater mark?
- What are the lasting legacies of populism?
- How should democracies deal with such legacies?
- Will the weakening of populism with the defeat of Donald Trump’s incumbency and his attempted coup d’etat have ramifications for the movement globally? and more
