The working hypothesis of this book is that the issue of leadership
is neglected by mainstream democratic and liberal theories. This
deficiency has especially become evident in the last three or four
decades, which have witnessed a revival of deontological liberalism
and radical theories of participatory and 'deliberative' democracy.
The contributors examine, discuss and evaluate descriptive,
analytical and normative arguments regarding the role of leadership
in liberal and democratic theory. The volume seeks to provoke
debate and to foster new research on the significance and function
of leaders in liberal democracies.
The book (as a whole and in its constitutive chapters) works on
two levels. First, it aims to expose the lack of systematic
treatment of leadership in mainstream liberal and democratic
theory. Second, it explores the reasons for this neglect. Overall,
the book tries to convince the reader that liberal and democratic
theories should revive the issue of leadership.
