Judging by its leading role in public discussion and by the abundant recent bibliography, one might think that populism could be considered one of the decisive phenomena in contemporary politics. The conceptualization of populism has basically focused on the political domain and on the ideational and rhetorical aspects of populist ideology or political style, to the detriment of structural and systemic aspects. In this article, the purpose is to make the most of the contribution of the systemic theory to the theorizing of functional differentiation, the problems of self-government, the possibility of overloading social systems and the legitimation crises in late capitalism. Through a systemic framing of the options of populist rupture in the political, economic and legal subsystems, as well as in the sociocultural sphere, the structural components and systemic performances of populism are explored, beyond its manifestations in the political domain. In conclusion, the ideal types of authoritarian right-wing populism and radical left-wing populism are reconstructed, starting from their respective circuits of systemic options.
