Abstract


This study delves into the intricate relationship between globalization and populism, specifically exploring whether globalization
acts as a catalyst for the rise of populist movements. Analyzing the waves of globalization and employing a case study of France, we demon_x005fstrate that economic and cultural aspects play pivotal roles in fuelling populism. The rise of far-right leader Marine Le Pen serves as a poignant example of how globalization impacts job opportunities and contributes to societal discontent.

Keywords
