Resumo
O conceito de populismo ressurgiu como fator explicativo do processo de declínio
democrático em curso em vários países. Este artigo retoma parte da tradição teórica histórica e política de pesquisa sobre populismo para questionar a adequação de identificação entre autoritarismo e populismo. Defende-se que, na medida em que populismo explica o conflito sobre o papel do povo na política, permite aprimoramento democrático.

Abstract
The concept of populism has resurfaced as a factor explaining the process of democratic decline underway in several countries. This article takes up part of the historical and political theoretical tradition of research on populism to question the adequacy of identification between authoritarianism and populism. It argues that, to the extent that populism explains the conflict over the role of the people in politics, it allows democratic improvement.
Keywords: Populism; Constitutionalism; Populist constitutionalism.
