Your comment is awaiting moderation.
On Tuesday 5th November there will be the following lecture at St Anthony’s Oxford which seems of interest on this topic. Perhaps you will find a way of reporting on your blog on what is said, bearing in mind that “populism” is now EU code for “democracy” and as such seems targeted for destruction:

ESC Core Seminar Series – Europe in Crisis*
Governance: Pluralism vs Order
Walter Kickert (Erasmus University, Rotterdam)
Miguel Maduro (EUI, Florence)
Convenors: Othon Anastasakis, Mark Leonard and Jan Zielonka
Comparing Democracy as in opposition to Order under a heading of Governance strikes me as very ominous.
