Abstract
This special issue titled Who’s got the power? A special issue on de/politicization emerged as retrospective on a special issue of five years ago, titled ‘Power to the people!’ An anatomy of populism (Uitermark et al. 2012). As populism lost its aura of a novel movement, the public struggle to claim and gain authority on important themes has become more explicit. In a series of essays, contributors reflect on past and current subjects of de/politicization, among which populism, the (allegedly shrinking) middle class, climate governance, migration and the European Union, fake news, racism, political trust and the role of social scientists in public debates.
