“Leaders and Followers”
“Leaders and Followers”
History has its unique way to express the historical evidence, as something very important and interesting. From very routes of human existence people had two basic relationship: leader and follower, what they thought would help them to create better society; or people just followed a strong leader and gave their responsibilities to the person who could create a place where they can live and prosper. But unfortunately this basic institution of leaders and followers brought not only good but also the bad. What humanity knows and achieved by now is because of efforts, thinking, beliefs, ideas, inventions and even mistakes of peoples of the past. Interestingly enough, people could not look forward without knowing the past, but either way, they did the same mistakes as their ancestors but for other reasons and beliefs. Leadership and follower can be seen in every institution and in various ways: like religious beliefs, in economics and politics, in family and society. John Locke said that person’s freedom consists of three things: life, liberty and property, and if one of those things are threatened the person can rebel against his/her leader. What is the most important aspect of this basic institution is that it tent to be interchangeable and very ambiguous. Leadership is ‘very simple,’ a person gains power for different reasons: power, mind, genetics, and appeal, and rules over people and directs them to better life. In reality this idea of leadership almost does not exist. There are three different leadership types that are most practiced in the past and the present. The first type of leadership is the Traditional one, which is the type of leadership that came through tradition and it is not questioned or challenged, because it is the way it should be. The perfect example of Traditional authority is the book, “A life of her own” by Emilie Carles. In this book Emilie tells her readers about her life in her family and outside of her family:
