Mattei Dogan : Political Personnel and Charismatic Personality.
During the legislative elections and the 1962 Referendum we were able to witness a charimastic phenomenon in the sense given to this term by Max Weber General de Gaulle was indeed omnipresent, and most of his adversaries, well known men of the IVth Republic, were eliminated from the Parliament. The depersonalisation of the candidates, the solicitation of votes in the name of a saviour and not for a political party, the contrast between the trust manifested towards general de Gaulle's person and the indifference concerning his cabinet ministers, the image of a glamorous resistance leader, the faithfulness to the cause of a man considered as providential, threat of civil war if this man should abandon the helm, are aspects of charismatic personality, revealed by a content analysis of two thousand electoral speeches written by Parliament candidates. The author also quotes results of public-opinion surveys. Imposed by exceptional circumstances, the charismatic leader in the accomplishment of his mission, in re-establishing order, becomes less and less indispensable, providential. The sucessor of a charismatic leader can only be, at best, a new political class. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
