In person icon Populist Disinformation and Foreign Policy

Abstract

This panel examines the role of disinformation and narrative construction in populist approaches to foreign policy. It brings together case studies and theoretical reflections on how populist actors manipulate historical memory, national identity, and ideas of solidarity to advance revisionist or exclusionary agendas. From selective irredentism in Romania to shared narratives of loss and far-right visions of international solidarity, the papers analyse how deception operates as both a strategic and affective tool in the populist foreign policy repertoire.
