The danger of populism is that the majority may become a tyranny.
Populism is understood as a political program or movement that upholds the common person, usually by favourable contrast with an elite.
Populism is a "political tendency that aims to attract the popular classes."
The term populism can designate both democratic and authoritarian movements.
Populism is commonly critical of political representation and anything that mediates the relation between the people and their leader or government.
