The primary campaigns in 2016 show how some of these assumptions have become questionable . However, it is mostly the Republican primary of 2016 that signals a departure from the traditional ways of candidate selection . Finally, it is asked if both the campaign of Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders can be interpreted as examples of genuine populist movements . The record is, again, mixed: Whereas Trump truly deserves the populism label, Bernie Sanders’ campaign needs to be interpreted in a slightly different light .}, journal = {ZParl Zeitschrift für Parlamentsfragen}, pages = {271--286}, author = {Lütjen, Torben}, volume = {48}, number = {2} }
