ABSTRACT

In this paper, how policy making can be affected by different political contexts will be studied. This study considers negative meaning load for the word populism and assumes populism as a communicative strategy that politicians use in order to get in touch with unrecognized sections of society. Populist Context with concentration on the role of people would help politicians manipulate mass of people and benefit welfare policies as means in attraction of people in order to achieve their goals. And comparison of welfare policies in Iran after 1989 will clarify how Ahmedinejad’s populist policy making affected Iran’s welfare.
