Abstract
The battle of politics against democracy as a big bang of electoral arena is a kind of duality between the demands of society and imperatives of political power that has drawn the radicalism of politicians under question. Such populist measure tries to understand the representation politics as an inactivity and thoughtless challenge doubled the difficulty of delayed agency. So, this collective action is backing the negativism and revive the unhappy subjects based on the syndrome of absolute societal sovereignty. This exposure will design the new city-politics based on the electoral confrontation between the positional and oppositional power. Accordingly, the main research question of this paper is whether the linguistic and behavioral fortunes of populism will limit the formal power and treat the challenges of political representation in order to get rid of geo-electoral boundaries? According to the hypothesis, trying to confine the positional logic of power-holders has turned the democracy as a single perception before the populist rhetoric that causes to chaos with its pixilated interpretation about the politics of representation. Nevertheless, the finding of the current paper shows that negative attitudes of populism towards the pluralism and differences has built a meta-pluralist society attempting to design a virtuous society after deconstructing the then- politics.
