Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the concept of leadership in a democratic society and explores why there is currently a perceived lack of suitable leaders. By examining both historical and contemporary factors, the author argues that there are several reasons for the current shortage of leadership material. He discusses how the complexity of modern life, the standardization of thought and experience, and the disintegration of social cohesion, have all contributed to this problem. The author also criticizes the abuse of democratic principles and the increasing focus on pleasing the masses, rather than governing with conviction and wisdom. The book provides a thought-provoking analysis of the challenges facing leadership in modern democracies and offers insights into how these issues can be addressed. Through historical context and philosophical inquiry, this book encourages readers to contemplate the essence of true leadership, the factors that hinder its emergence, and the crucial role it plays in shaping societies.
