Obviously, populism sentient and thought have impacted contemporary political life, finding the reasons for the recent rise in populism is an effective way to address concerns. This paper selected 16 academic papers from 2008 to present related to the causes of populism from Google Scholar, the reasons for the proliferation of populist sentiment will be obtained by summarizing the viewpoints. There are totally four reasons that the paper illustrates: Ideological basis, Political reasons, Economic reasons, and Cultural reasons. A meaningful conclusion about reasons of populism in recent year will be presented through the research of this paper.
