In order to find trends of institutional decline under populist governments, this study looks into how populism impacts the stability and operation of democratic institutions. Because populism has become more popular worldwide and regularly deviates from established democratic norms, it is crucial to look into how it affects institutional integrity and governance. A comprehensive analysis of legal, political, and institutional changes was conducted, along with a comparative analysis of populist regimes in various regions using qualitative case studies. It is recommended that civic education be encouraged, the balance of power be reinforced, and international cooperation be expanded to safeguard democratic values and counteract populist inclinations. According to the findings, populism often jeopardizes the long-term sustainability of democratic institutions by undermining judicial independence, eroding civil liberties, and expanding executive power.
