What motivates political leaders to seek office? What social
backgrounds do political leaders exhibit? Are all leaders
fundamentally alike or do we find important differences between
them? These and related questions concerning political leadership
are examined in this unique new work. The authors concentrate on
two principal types of political leaders: Loyalists, those who seek
office through peaceful processes, whether appointive or elective;
and Revolutionaries, those who seize power in violent ways. By
systematically comparing the similarities and differences between
these two groups, Rejai and Phillips find that Loyalists and
Revolutionaires are basically the same type of person. However,
their most significant differences lie in their relative access to
positions of power and authority within their respective
societies.
