- Аннотация: The article follows a structuralist approach to ideological constructions, identifying the myth of the whole and united people’s body as the most significant for populism. Populism is defined here as a political strategy, including some elements of a thin-centered ideology and of a discursive style. For right-wing populism, a combination of populist strategy with nativism is the main feature. The representation of the people as a single body is central because it creates the very raison d’être for populism, since the latter claims to represent some “general will” (volonté générale). Nativism and other features of (right-wing) populist ideologemes emerge logically from this discursive holism, because a single body should be inevitably kept united and “clean”. The COVID-19 pandemic gave rise to both nativism and populist biopolitics, because a “bounded community” should be healthy, and any kind of regulating human biological life resonates well with populist representations. Thus, the pandemic not only won’t decrease populist influence, but will definitely increase it.
