Ethics of Politics: Leaders

Product Description

What do we look for in our leaders? Does it differ from country to country or do we all expect and hope for, more or less, the same qualities and characteristics from those who lead us?
This book looks at political leaders and discusses why and how societies demand certain standards of conduct from their leaders. it examines what corruption really is and how politicians can become corrupt. Playing a major role in this book are international and historical case studies of noteworthy politicians on both sides of the spectrum - the notably revered and the notably corrupt.
This sophisticated series on global politics will help readers analyse international political structures, both modern and historical. it also encourages readers to gin a deeper understanding of how the seemingly adult world of politics touches their own lives.
