• Description: Some populist parties have already reached the institutions or even the government in local and regional levels. This working paper aims to analyse the impact of populist parties in regional and local government or the impact of the government when the ruling party needs the support of a populist party. Local and regional governments offer a particularly interesting framework for analysis due to different factors: the existence of a plurality of units, provides the possibility, both to citizens and to analysts and scholars, to contrast manifestos with effective institutional action.
