The Populist Comeback: How Protectionism and Reinvention Reshape America’s Political Future #916443

What happens when populism returns with new momentum? The Populist Comeback examines the resurgence of protectionist trade policies, nationalist rhetoric, and populist reinvention in contemporary American politics.

Written in a professional and accessible style for students, this book unpacks the dynamics behind trade wars, shifting alliances, and the populist appeal that challenges traditional institutions. It explores how renewed protectionism impacts global markets, reshapes domestic priorities, and fuels political polarization. At the same time, it highlights how populism continually reinvents itself—adapting strategies, language, and platforms to maintain influence.

Rather than simply diagnosing problems, the book provides frameworks for understanding populism’s cyclical nature and its implications for democracy. Readers gain both critical insight into today’s political landscape and tools for analyzing how movements of disruption reshape governance.

If you want to understand the forces behind modern populism and the protectionist turn in global politics, this book offers the clarity and depth you need.
