Kirkpatrick published a number of articles in political science journals reflecting her disillusionment with the Democratic party, and was especially critical of the foreign policy of Democratic President Jimmy Carter.

Kirkpatrick's political turn seems to have corresponded with a religious turn. Explaining her disillusionment with international organizations, especially the United Nations, she stated, "as I watched the behavior of the nations of the U.N. (including our own), I found no reasonable ground to expect any one of those governments to transcend permanently their own national interests for those of another country...I conclude that it is a fundamental mistake to think that salvation, justice, or virtue come through merely human institutions...Democracy not only requires equality but also an unshakable conviction in the value of each person, who is then equal. Cross cultural experience teaches us not simply that people have different beliefs, but that people seek meaning and understand themselves in some sense as members of a cosmos ruled by God."

In 1980 she became the foreign policy adviser for the United States Republican Party/Republican presidential candidate Ronald Reagan during his campaign. After winning the election, Reagan nominated Kirkpatrick as United States Ambassadors to the United Nations/United States Ambassador to the United Nations, a position she held for four years.

Kirkpatrick sympathized with Argentina's President Leopoldo Galtieri/Gen. Leopoldo Galtieri whose military regime clamped down on leftists (''see'' "Dirty War"). Her support was basically muted when the administration ultimately decided to declare support for the British (''see'' Falklands War#Shuttle Diplomacy/U.S. shuttle diplomacy during the Falklands War).

She later became a member of Reagan's national security team, where she was accused of accepting bribes, falsifying tapes that implicated Soviet Union/Soviet forces in the shooting down of a South Korea/South Korean passenger jet (Korean_Air_Flight_KAL-007/Flight 007) on September 1, 1983, and advocating the dismantling of India, all of which she denied.
