Abstract
It’s now common to hear Corbynism described as ‘populist’. But if we examine the core characteristics of populism, we find Corbynism bears only a very superficial resemblance to populist movements. This framing often functions as an attempt to delegitimise any political view lying outside the centre-ground of politics, and should be resisted.
