OSORIO, Alejandro  and  SALAZAR, Mauro. Politics, Hegemony and Populism: Dialogues with Ernesto Laclau. rev.estud.soc. [online]. 2020, n.71, pp.101-106. ISSN 0123-885X.  https://doi.org/10.7440/res71.2020.08.

In this interview, academics Mauro Salazar and Alejandro Osorio talk with Argentine political theorist Ernesto Laclau, whose work has been of special relevance in understanding a wave of national-popular governments in Latin America in recent decades. In this respect, the scope of this interview deals with general and specific aspects of the (post-)Marxist tradition, but with an accent on the uses and abuses of the notion of hegemony, given the discursive nature of the approach in question. Thus, along with reviewing a diversity of political matters, Laclau's notion of hegemony creates a space from which to think about the mixtures of populism.

Keywords : Antagonisms; hegemony; politics; populismo.
