emotional tendencies that support rhetoric or policies that emphasize “the people” as opposed to the “elite,” contributing to a sense of collective exclusivity and social injustice. These orientations fuel emotions such as anger, fear, and social injustice, and explain popular support for populist and charismatic movements. They also illustrate how collective emotions can prevail over rational analysis in guiding political behavior.
