Abstract:

Globalization is a phenomenon with economic, social, and political consequences because of the spread of the market economy in the whole world. This phenomenon causes major consequences in the life of societies. Societies united economically with the globalization process, but seem to be socio-psychologically separated. These socio-psychological separations need to be addressed in the context of globalization psychology, nationalism psychology, and populism psychology. The study endeavor to understand the motivation of the increasing populist wave by presenting the psychology of the globalization process and the psychology of populist/nationalist movements that emerged as anti-globalization in this process. This study deals with globalization psychology in the context of individual, large group (national) and, small group psychology and tries to evaluate the results of globalization in the context of nationalism psychology and populism psychology.
