This book provides a philosophically informed, institutionalist
account of political leadership. It is rooted in a certain version
of the American pragmatist philosophical tradition and privileges
the study of institutions as a cause of leadership outcomes. The
book adopts a multi-method approach. It includes a laboratory
experiment identifying the psychological effects of presidentialism
and parliamentarism on leader behavior; a large-n statistical study
of the impact of semi-presidentialism on voter choice; an expert
survey of president/cabinet conflict in Europe; an analysis of
presidential control over cabinet composition in France; and two
in-depth case studies of the circumstances surrounding
constitutional choice in France and Romania. This book is aimed at
scholars and students of political leadership, political
institutions, the philosophy of the social sciences, and research
methods. Overall, it shows that an institutional account has the
potential to generate well-settled beliefs about the causes of
leadership outcomes.
