8.As was noted after Angela Merkel’s nomination as chancellor : «Within a short time, she advanced from obscure scientific researcher in communist East Germany to chancellor , without representing a special constituency of her own, against opponents in her own party who had spent their lives scrambling up the political ladder.» H.A. Kissinger, Will Germany Coalition Work?, in Washington Post, November 22, 2005.

9.As Berlin put it: «There exists a shoe – the word “populism ” – for which somewhere exists a foot. There are all kinds of feet which it nearly fits, but we must not be trapped by these nearly fitting feet. The prince is always wandering about with the shoe; and somewhere, we feel sure, there awaits a limb called pure populism. » Quoted by Margaret Canovan, Populism, New York, Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 1981, p. 7.
