The Psychology of Politicians explores a topic which fuels public
and media debate yet is under-researched and has potentially
far-reaching consequences for the success of our political systems.
Focusing on research with democratically elected representatives
from the UK, Poland and Italy, and on the political behaviour of a
former US President and voters' perceptions in the emerging
democracy of Ukraine, this book is packed with psychological
insights. Using quantitative and qualitative methodologies, the
contributors chart the progress of the individual politician from
selection as a candidate to becoming established in Parliament
examining their qualities as communicators, thinkers and leaders.
The impact of work and non-work pressures on their mental
well-being and capacity to handle a crisis are probed and the roles
of personality traits in politicians' values and in public
perceptions of our elected representatives are highlighted.
