Feldman, Valenty, and their contributors present
state-of-the-art evaluations of linkages between personality,
motivation, decision making, leadership style, and behavior among
political leaders across divergent cultures. Leading scholars in
the field examine the application of theoretical approaches and
research methods used to evaluate these important relationships.
They effectively illustrate the concomitant role of cultural and
political context, historical circumstance, environmental factors,
and socialization agents affecting political leadership and
performance.
Contributors evaluate methods currently in use by scholars in
political science, psychology, political psychology, social
psychology, and history, including psychodiagnostic and
psychobiographical approaches, and the application of these methods
in profiling the personalities of political leaders. Each chapter
presents a unique case study evaluating a political leader or
leaders including such major figures as Mao Zedong, Tony Blair,
Seyyed Mohammed Khatami, Helmut Kohl, and Stalin, Yeltsin, and
Putin.
