Hi Philip, Your question is very interesting. I have been working on Berlusconism and the involvement of his media in establishing his cultural and political hegemony, which I describe as a neoloberal authoritarian populism. I employ the work by Stuart Hall on Thatcherism and the Italian scholar Mazzoleni on Media Populism, perhaps these could provide some starting point.

There are currently several very vibrant list discussions looking at critical theories and analyses of social media and its role in the 2016 American election. My general question follows directly from these dialogues: can anyone provide references or thoughts on published articles, chapters, etc. looking at the relationship of ideological/cultural populism to mass culture industries and social media? Any critical work, for example, that seeks to understand how the culture industries help build populist sensibilities within a culture? Perhaps in relation to more traditional working class, labour-oriented ideologies?
Thanks, A
