{"product_id":"modern-leaders-agnes-horvath-9780367522537","title":"Modern Leaders: Between Charisma and Trickery","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book considers the current striking rise of 'outsider' political leaders, catapulted, apparently, from nowhere, to take charge of a nation. Arguing that such leaders can be better understood with the help of the anthropologically based concept of 'the trickster', it offers studies of contemporary political figures from the world stage - including Presidents Macron, Tsipras, Orb疣 and Bolsonaro, among others - to examine the ways in which charismatic and trickster modalities can become intertwined, especially under the impact of theatrical public media. Looking beyond the commonly invoked notion of 'charisma' to revisit the question of political leadership in light of the recent rise of new type of 'outsider' leaders, \u003ci\u003eModern Leaders: Between Charisma and Trickery\u003c\/i\u003e offers an account of leadership informed by social and anthropological theory. As such, it will appeal to scholars across the social sciences with interests in political thought and the problem of political leadership.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Agnes Horvath\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367522535\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367522537\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/29\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.54d","brand":"Agnes Horvath","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44057219563775,"sku":"9780367522537","price":52.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0a887184-476d-4b84-8102-24e8f42be1b2.jpg?v=1685045719","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/modern-leaders-agnes-horvath-9780367522537","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
