Using a vast array of primary sources, interviews, and critical literature analysis Manochehr Dorraj and Michael Dobson examine populist experiences in the distinct cultural settings of Iran and Venezuela. By understanding populism as a discourse with that of treating it as a particular style of popular mobilization centred on charismatic leadership and themes of social justice they are able to identity four factors to illuminate the populist agenda and its implementation; -
