- Abstract
- <jats:p> While the politics of backlash is typically described as a reaction to policy decisions in favour of minority rights, immigration or globalisation, this essay focuses on the fact that backlash typically also involves a reaction against the procedural consensus liberal democracy is based upon. This challenge to democratic procedures and institutions may be even more dangerous in its effects than the substantial objectives of backlash. I use the composite definition of backlash suggested by Alter and Zürn to assess in how far the attacks on the institutions of liberal democracy have retrograde objectives in themselves or in how far they are merely instrumental to the pursuit of other retrograde objectives. The conclusion reflects on possible outcomes of backlash politics for democratic institutions and argues that in the best case, the present contestation of rules, norms and institutions could also lead to a democratic renewal of the procedural consensus. </jats:p>
