This book illustrates the cyclical pattern in the kinds of dilemmas
that confront political leaders and, in particular, disjunctive
political leaders affiliated with vulnerable political regimes. The
volume covers three major episodes in disjunction: the interwar
crisis between 1923 and 1940, afflicting Stanley Baldwin, Ramsay
MacDonald and Neville Chamberlain; the collapse of Keynesian
welfarism between 1970 and 1979, dealt with by Edward Heath, Harold
Wilson and James Callaghan; and the ongoing crisis of neoliberalism
beginning in 2008, affecting Gordon Brown, David Cameron and
Theresa May. Based on this series of case studies of disjunctive
prime ministers, the authors conclude that effective disjunctive
leadership is premised on judicious use of the prime ministerial
toolkit in terms of deciding whether, when and where to act,
effective diagnostic and choice framing, and the ability to manage
both crises and regimes.
