The philosopher's perceptions dealt with the political paradigm shift. According to Tormey, "the days of mediated politics, with a limited number of players and slow and predictable politicians, are gone". Contrary to what many think, he said, "what we are seeing is not a temporary response to an economic crisis", but long term experience forms of "vanishing policy" much more fluid and dynamic around 'pop-up' parties. As he explained, they are created for a specific purpose, are made up by a small group of people with no leader or manifesto, and disappear when they have reached their goal.
