Modern Leaders: Between Charisma and Trickery

Book Overview

Presenting studies of contemporary political figures, this book employs the anthropologically based concept of 'the trickster' to shed light on the rise of the - often anonymous - political leader, looking beyond the commonly invoked notion of 'charisma' to revisit the question of political leadership in an increasingly populist era.
