The passage shows that Californian politics, and in particular, political advancement methods, were not wholly bound by law as they are now.
Governmental institutions and government control was weaker at that time, so it was difficult to enforce the law consistently. Because of it, people did not have a strong commitment to following legal paths for advancement. Revolutions and rebellions were more effective in seizing power than political campaigns, and there were few negative repercussions for those who chose that method.
Answer: Populism from the Latin word "Populus," which in translation would mean the people.
Explanation:
Similar to the notion of democracy, populism implies a rule that is in the service of the people. It is the opposite of government, which includes in its interest group a small group of people whose interests are defended, which is the case with aristocracy and plutocracy. And if they are similar synonyms, democracy today implies positive connotations in public, while populism is taken in the context of the negative.
This is because the strategy of populism is based on using the sensibilities of society, their essential life issues for political purposes. For example, it is possible to take two groups, which are separated by different antagonisms. On the one hand, it is an ordinary people and on the other a corrupt elite who argue that politics should be an expression of the will of the people
