Leadership by Resentment
Author: Ruth Capriles
Publisher: Edward Elgar Publishing
ISBN: 1781006571
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 214
Book Description
What do such disparate events as Occupy Wall Street, IranÕs Islamic revolution and VenezuelaÕs socialist revolution have in common? Often, resentment based on past grievances or shortcomings seems to emerge from the depths of individual and collective psyches over the course of such emotionally charged movements. This resentment, and the related philosophical concept of ressentiment, can have a profound impact on the course of history and on the role of leadership within societies. Expanding on the concept of ressentiment, this book addresses the importance of emotions in historical events. The author explores the conditions that foster the development of ressentiment, the role of leaders and followers, and the phases of the phenomenon as it encourages destructive behaviors such as murder and suicide. Often considered an incurable disease with destructive social and political repercussions, it is a core motive for acts of terrorism, revolutions, social upheavals and processes of toxic leadership. The author puts forth a model that helps to describe certain historical processes led by ressentiment, like some revolutions and terrorist acts, and to distinguish them from other movements that are usually treated as similar (e.g., independence revolutions). The book then tackles a seemingly impossible question: Can we find a cure for this powerful and destructive impulse? With care and deliberation, the author demonstrates the power of ethical leadership, recognition and redemption as positive unifying forces during human conflicts. A philosophical endeavor to understand events from the Boston Tea Party to Occupy Wall Street, from the French revolution to Hugo Ch‡vezÕs revolution in Venezuela, this book will be fascinating reading for scholars and students of the social sciences and humanities and those with a particular interest in leadership.

Estudio de la motivación humana
Author: David C. McClelland
Publisher: Narcea Ediciones
ISBN: 9788427708617
Category : Self-Help
Languages : es
Pages : 692
Book Description
La psicología de la motivación es un campo muy amplio y poco delimitado. Lo abarca todo: desde los mecanismos fisiológicos de los impulsos animales hasta los motivos subconscientes a que las personas atribuyen su propia conducta. En esta gran obra, realizada por una verdadera autoridad en la materia, se integran todas estas fuentes de información para proporcionar una visión global y centrarse en los motivos humanos como determinantes de la acción distinguiéndolos de otras variables, como emociones, incentivos, valores. Aborda en profundidad la mediación de los motivos, su origen y desarrollo, sus fuentes sociales, desde los motivos en que los padres educan a sus hijos hasta la intervención destinada a cambiar los motivos de la gente. Explora los motivos clave que influyen en el comportamiento humano: de logro, de poder, de afiliación y de evitación. Se trata aquí la motivación de logro en la empresa y en el terreno económico, la motivación de poder en la política y la vida de las organizaciones, los motivos afiliativos y de evitación en las relaciones interpersonales y la salud. Se examinan los enfoques históricos (psicoanálisis y conductismo) de la motivación y las bases biológicas de los principales sistemas de motivos. Se ponen en conexión los motivos con las tendencias sociales, incluido el desarrollo, económico, la guerra y la paz, etc. Hay, pues que destacar junto a la indiscutible profesionalidad del autor, un auténtico experto que ha conseguido un libro bien expresado y científicamente apoyado, la revisión y puesta al día sobre los estudios empíricos acerca del tema, la acertada combinación de los enfoques biológico y social, el tratamiento de los efectos de la motivación no sólo en la conducta controlada de laboratorio, sino en la vida cotidiana. Las numerosas figuras y tablas que presenta hacen más intuitiva y accesible su lectura, al sintetizar los hallazgos de la investigación. Es una obra tanto para estudiantes como para profesionales de la psicología.
