Emotional Dimensions of Educational Administration and
Leadership explores foundational theories for emotional dimensions
of educational administration and leadership as they influence our
understanding, analysis and practice in the field. It covers a
broad range of topics, such as ethics, authority, personality,
social justice, gender discrimination, organisational culture,
decision-making, accountability and marketisation.
The first section, ?Theoretical Foundations?, includes
discussion of the early modern romantic philosophy that produced
the heroic notion of leadership, the idealist philosophy of Hegel,
existential concerns through Kierkegaard, the contributions of
psychoanalysis, and Habermasian critical theory. The second
section, ?Types of Emotional Analysis?, includes examinations of
the material culture, emotional economies, the politics of emotion,
and the relationship between emotion and rationality. The last
section, 'Critical and Contemporary Issues', includes critiques of
the fear arising from accountability regimes, the political economy
of the market model, a feminist critique of ideologies reflecting
emotional investments, narrative expressions for the emotional
context of teamwork, the problem of narcissism, and the emotional
dimensions of role engagement.
This volume explores an area that is only just re-emergent in
the last few years. The collection demonstrates the relevance to
practical issues and problems internationally, both within the
organisational context and extra-organisationally with a focus on
the application of emotional factors as they affect our
understanding of, and practice in, educational organisations. The
emotions of education affect the implementation of political values
and culture within organisations.
