Political Science Political Process Political Advocacy bic Book Industry Communication::J Society & social sciences::JP Politics & government::JPW Political activism This book sheds light on the theory of political leadership, which is still an under-researched field of political science. It is related to the philosophical argument about determinism versus activism and helps to understand the basic conflict of the 21st century between liberal democracy and new authoritarianism. The book looks at Max Weber's typology of political rule and his concept of the ethics of responsibility, which are key to the theory of leadership. The author shows that the unfinished contest between democracy and new authoritarianism in the 21st century confirms the importance of leadership in old and new democracies as well as in the neo-authoritarian regimes and calls for a new type of political leaders. 2022-03-18T05:33:59Z 2022-03-18T05:33:59Z 2021 book 9783847416937 https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/53462 eng application/pdf n/a external_content.pdf Verlag Barbara Budrich Verlag Barbara Budrich https://doi.org/10.3224/84742538 6508 https://doi.org/10.3224/84742538 c71f4dcb-6466-4fde-8a25-0516cdd477b8 b818ba9d-2dd9-4fd7-a364-7f305aef7ee9 9783847416937 Knowledge Unlatched (KU) Verlag Barbara Budrich Knowledge Unlatched open access |
