This course is an exploration of political leadership and political outcomes and shows the interconnectedness between the two. It considers classical as well as contemporary theories of leadership. Through this course, the learner will recognise these significantly fundamental questions: Is there a leadership vacuum and how, in the global political community that remains to be created, can we foresee and foster the advent to power of leaders who will dedicate themselves to goals that include the building of a universal community that will safeguard the interests of all mankind? How, if such leaders appear, can they gain the requisite popular support for sustained endeavours directed to these goals?
