Show Notes

My guest today is mi hermano Cristóbal Rovira Kaltwasser. Cristóbal is Professor of Political Science and Director of the Social Science Research Institute at Diego Portales University in Santiago de Chile. He has published extensively on populist and right-wing politics in Europe and particularly Latin America, including, co-edited with Pablo Luna, the prophetic The Resilience of the Latin American Right, published by Johns Hopkins University Press in 2014; co-authored with me, Populism: A Very Short Introduction, published by Oxford University Press in 2017; and most recently, co-edited with Tim Bale, Riding the Populist Wave: Europe’s Mainstream Right in Crisis, published by Cambridge University Press in 2021. In other words, he is the perfect guest for this fifth episode in the Special Election Series of RADIKAAL, which focuses on the Chilean presidential election of November and December 2021.
