Summary/Abstract: The twenty-first century has experienced enough instances of populist politics to allow analysts to be relatively confident of their identification. What is yet unknown is what their development might be over time. It is not at all clear that there is a pattern of development that they all exemplify. Some populist leaders rose to govern nations, other populists led political associations that have been languishing for years at relatively low levels of performance. Still other populists achieved nothing, disappearing into history with their followers. This study tries to analyze to what extent the populist discourse has chances to impose itself in Romania.
