The Republic of Azerbaijan is the largest country in the Caucasus, which is located in the South Caucasus. This country, which declared its independence on August 30, 1370, shortly after the collapse of the Soviet Union, is one of the important countries that, due to the strategic location, has been highly regarded by regional and extra-regional players in recent years. The political system of Azerbaijan is defined according to the constitution, based on the presidential republic system based on the separation of powers and secular government, but in practice, the power is in the hands of the executive branch and the president himself. Perhaps one of the main reasons for this is the takeover of all three powers by the ruling “New Azerbaijan” party. Since the independence of the Republic of Azerbaijan, four presidents have come to work, and the current president “Ilham Aliyev” has had the longest presidential term in this country, who has been in power since 1382 and after the death of Heydar Aliyev. Using the “new-authoritarianism” approach, this article seeks to answer the question, “What is Ilham Aliyev’s politics and government in Azerbaijan?” The time frame of this research is the post-war period of Karabakh, that is, from 1382 onwards. This research was done by descriptive-analytical method and data collection was done by library and internet method.
