Entrepreneurial Parties with Vít Hloušek

In this episode of .think atlantic, IRI’s Thibault Muzergues is joined by Vít Hloušek, a contemporary European history and politics professor in the Czech Republic to discuss the rise of entrepreneurial parties and their influence on European politics.

Vít Hloušek is head of the Department of the International Institute of Political Science at Masaryk University in Brno, Czech Republic. He specializes in comparative political science research and has authored numerous publications, including The Rise of Entrepreneurial Parties in European Politics. His expertise on entrepreneurial politics directs the episode’s discussion on the new phenomenon in politics and the intersection of business and political ideologies.

What are entrepreneurial parties and where are they emerging from? What qualities do political entrepreneurs have that differ them from traditional party leaders? Are there any benefits to evolving politics to be more business-like? Are entrepreneurial parties only a product of right-wing politics? Does the rise of entrepreneurial parties indicate something more sinister about the rise of personal charisma as a definer of electoral politics? Thibault and his guest discuss these questions – and much more.
