Political Leadership and Political Behaviour: the Rubik’s Cube of Social Sciences
Journal Title: International Journal of Interdisciplinary and Multidisciplinary Studies (IJIMS) - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
The following paper is an attempt to broadly understand political behaviour in the Indian subcontinent and the type of political leaders societies in this region produce. The prevalent mode of political behaviour was found to operate around patron-client networks and the type of political leaders such contexts produce was found to be less prone to charisma building and more prone to building social capital above and below in order to remain in power. The paper consequently recommends the use of Bourdieu’s methodology rather than Weber’s to deconstruct effectively, such political behaviour and contexts.
