The decision-making process in foreign policy is undoubtedly influenced by many factors. Among these, the structure of the leader is the most striking factor. Leader plays a role in foreign policy making according to the structure of the countries. While the leader is an ineffective actor in foreign policy making in some countries, s/he is in the process in some countries. The point where populism and foreign policy come together arises in countries where the leader acts as a decision-maker. Although populism remains like an element of domestic politics, it is obvious that today foreign policy is affected by domestic politics and vice versa. In countries where populist discourses are frequently on the agenda, leaders seem to be the most effective actors in all decision-making processes. The process is shaped according to how the policy maker wants to act in the decision-making process. Therefore, it is seen that populism is an important ideology in the decision-making process in foreign policy, as populist leaders also take populist steps in their foreign policies. This article examines by using literature review how foreign policy and domestic policy affect each other and get affected by each other, taking populism as an ideology as its basis.}, number={1}, publisher={İrfan TÜRKOĞLU}
