Created thirty years ago, the Northern League has been shelved by a new leader, Matteo Salvini, who has replaced it with a brand new party that bears his own name: the Lega per Salvini Premier (League for Salvini Premier). However, as western Europe continues to witness the sustained growth of populism within its borders, 'Bossi's League' offers a high-profile case study of a populist party from protest to government. Based on a wealth of original research, the book identifies the Northern League's consistent and coherent ideology, its strong leadership and its ability to create communities of loyal partisan activists as key ingredients of its success. Through their in-depth analysis, Albertazzi and Vampa show that the League has much to teach us about how populists can achieve durability and rootedness and how parties of all kinds can still benefit from a committed and dedicated membership today.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Daniele Albertazzi is Professor of Politics at the University of Surrey Davide Vampa is Senior Lecturer in Politics and International Relations at Aston University, Birmingham
