On the first episode of Insights: the CUBS podcast from UCC, we’re discussing the topical and thorny issue of populism and the reason for its rise in regional areas, asking if it could happen in Ireland too?

Joining presenter, Anthony McDonnell, was Declan Jordan CUBS’ Senior Lecturer in Economics and Co-Director of the Spatial and Regional Economics Research Centre to discuss regional economics and the dangers of the problems caused by imbalances in the system.
