This is meant to continue the previous research about populist rethorics. The rethorical components, ethos, pathos and logos are interpreted with the help of populist theory. The analysis is done by examining speeches of the party-leader, Åkesson. The results of the investigation showed that the populist party, Sverigedemokraterna, uses mainly pathos induced rethorics, meaning he mainly tries to evoke emotions from the audience to try to persuade them about his political message.
