European Populism and Its Ties with Localism

Abstract

Localism is the process of redistribution or assignment of powers or functions concentrated in a central place or in a central authority. Today, localism is the allocation of responsibility, planning and implementation of change from the highest organizational level closer to the problem or area in which the activities are carried out. An example is the federal and federal fees that are shared with state and municipal levels of government. In the process of EU membership, many constituent powers implemented innovations such as alleviation of statism, populism and centralization, one of the basic values of previous periods, privatization of state-owned enterprises, and the establishment of a decentralized government style in state administration, advocating for conservative, nativist and traditional values at local, surprisingly in a populist style, promising a rapid economic development across regionalism, and thus maintained a relatively modern and prosperous level in integration period. In this study, the displacement of the relations of power over the localism, which is the return of the said integration processes, will be explained. The European elections of May 2019 were to be marked by the rise of populism. In order to approach an optimum ratio, the role of the urban power networks in the new era in social and administrative terms was discussed
