This book examines charismatic leaders, and the influence of charisma on power, authority and nationalism. Including chapters on Abraham Lincoln, Atatürk, Adolf Hitler, Mussolini, Nasser, Haider and Nelson Mandela, this is a ground-breaking and innovative study that applies and challenges Max Weber's concept of 'charisma' in the study of leaders and nations.
