Political leadership promise and as farce: Why policy is anthropomorphic? On the out siders
Why politics is anthropomorphic? Is the question that tried to answer in this post. I tried to summarize the reasons for the policy anthropomorphism in 4 factors.
1 º Identification of the actions of political virtues (or vices) to the politician himself. Politics is deliberation, decision and action. The deliberate policy, decided and done and then discuss, decide and transmit values \u200b\u200bthat can be weighed by the membership of his party or the public. For example, a few weeks ago Congressman Víctor Andrés Popular Action Garcia Belaunde dismissed as "unworthy" to APRA for obstructing congressional election of members of the Constitutional Court. Congress President demanded the withdrawal of those words. García Belaunde not retired and reaffirmed it. A portion of the public supports the statement by the Popular Action congressman, and Rep. advances its claim to be the next President of the Congress. The actions of politicians convey values. What he does what he says is what the political citizens. If she does or says political transmits sincerity, opportunism and cynicism that's part of the subjectivity of the public.
The values \u200b\u200bof a good politician or a political ideal is part of the political culture of the company concerned, and are perceived in the actions and decisions of politicians. If a politician does things that are perceived as intelligent, courageous or honest politician then be associated with these virtues, and we have a politician perceived as intelligent, fearless and honest. This is one of the factors in the anthropomorphizing of politics: the identification of the actions of political virtues (or vices) to the politician himself.
2 The policy and seeking the common good. The second factor to the anthropomorphizing of the policy would to do with politics as a way to strive for the common good. The government is related to the search for the common good of society and to achieve the common good requires that politicians are related to the values \u200b\u200bthat enable good governance: the courage, intelligence, honesty, frugality, work, the gift of command, the charisma, simplicity, where the word, courage, gallantry, etc.. These values \u200b\u200bare perceived as positive because they make possible the preservation of life, of freedom, equity, justice.
implicit rationing is as follows: a righteous person will make things fair, a make things honest man honest, intelligent woman will do things intelligent. And all these virtues are good for good governance. 3 º
political leadership in a context of uncertainty. Political leadership means ability of a person to be custodian of the political confidence of a sector of the population. Its net indicator is their intention to vote for the highest office in their jurisdiction.
happens in countries such as Peru's political candidates for public office through games. Are the parties who nominate candidates. Politicians alone can not run if it is presented and endorsed by a party.
But the complexity of the situations that have generated a constant uncertainty and we need many decisions that can not be agreed by the parties of the politicians. Are the politicians themselves who have to decide once in government, not parties. This makes it necessary that the political virtues which ensure that good governance including the need that is not hamstrung by a bureaucratic entity and parties. 4 º Leadership
promise and leadership as a farce. Leadership is always a promise. A future promise of incentives on those who support them. And a promise is always referred to the future. So a leader must have personal qualities that make it credible that implicitly promises. All who join a leader expect the realization of that promise and that promise is better if it can be expressed publicly highlighted, developed with input from many, and there is a context and resources (all types) sufficient to realize such promise.
A real leadership expands their personal goals and goal-partisan national goals even when the personal project needs to be confused with the party and the country, synergistically. A scale that can attract people that are committed to that leadership. And those people are the strength that you need that leadership to the activities of the construction of a project. Intelligence, wisdom, strength, virility, courage, charisma, expression ... and a gift of himself favored by God, enable strong leadership. All leadership, however, development is always a promise and a farce. A promise and a farce combined cleverly strung together as a watermark in a specific context in which it feeds.
Leadership is a farce as long as the person standing in a particular context by force is influenced by a number of reasons, motives, circumstances, and these are always conflicting in a complex society like the present. And yet, the politician is obliged to keep a sufficient policy coherence to ensure their actions in government. But it happens that social contradictions are also expressed in personal contradictions, opinion, political position. And except for some great ideas politician has enough space to accommodate the views of the people either as a candidate either as a government. In fact a person with fixed or fully coherent ideas is a myth. When someone says "I say what I think" not telling the truth, because what you think not only always be much more than what you say but will not always be consistent about thoughts on others. In reality, the complexity of social life is reflected in contradictions almost all debatable issues. Except for some dogmas, everything else has room for heterodoxy, the staging and the use language. A person who "says what he thinks is a myth.
And yet the politician has to be consistent, something very, very difficult and not much memory do you need to find political contradictions in the most virtuous of national policy. Between before and now. Not only honesty but a good memory and intelligence can aquiline, with effort, make it appear as a coherent policy. That is why political leadership will always be a promise as both a farce. Greetings

Power Cable Loose On Lcd Monitor
About
siders out in the previous said article is not the fact that a candidate is out siders, but some features out siders and out siders the position assumed by the candidate in Peru today than it brings people together. To further establish the differences, defining what I believe is an out siders, features stand out siders and out siders.
A siders out in strict political leadership is formed on the outside and against the political system. Features
out siders would be the candidate's personal characteristics with which to identify those who feel marginalized and / or excluded from the political system, basically its racial, social or gender.
For "stand out sider "basically understand the attitude of the candidate for appearing in the eyes of the electorate as different from the leadership of the establishment.
That respect for differences. With respect to what is shared, common to the three definitions is that they are perceived by the electorate as factors inclusive.
One out siders to be necessarily have to have an inclusive discourse forged apart from outside and against the political system. Why? Because not all coming from outside the out siders consider it but only successful candidates, namely those coming from outside manage to get inside the political system, ie to achieve electoral success. In this sense, the out siders only refers to the way leadership entered the political system. And you have to enter or win a presidential election or to achieve a considerable bank (with which hypothetically can articulate an opposition to the government). Therefore, Humberto Lay would not be an out siders having failed to either condition. Instead, Ollanta Humala itself can be considered as an out siders, at least during the campaign in 2006 and from the results obtained in 2006. But as this category refers only to how to enter the political system does not say anything about evaluation as a politician after the elections of that year.
As an out siders come from outside the system has a political message to voters who feel marginalized or excluded by the system. So his message is inclusive. Now, when a society has a political system that is a true factory out siders like Peru means that the political process does not seem to solve the structural problems of our society. Or at least not for a relative majority of citizens for what they believe to improve the state of affairs would be useful to change the policy and / or politicians. Faced with this situation, the political system does not remain with folded arms, but implement electoral strategies that uncheck the establishment of which they are part, made a speech against the political-economic system (remember the promise of Alan Garcia on that would lower the cost of electricity, water, telephone, etc, and the elimination of services? ) and even take an outward physical appearance so that voters try to approach (which includes a Lourdes Flores folk dress, eating chicken and dancing cumbia, etc.). This is what I call "stand out siders." For it is not an out siders but whose electoral strategy is the removal of strut exclusive establishment (at least until the completion of elections) appealing to the symbolic-excluded. The question that these politicians are trying to answer is how we reach out to voters and win their votes in a context where most feel marginalized?
But regardless of the electoral strategy are factors that remain part of the physical appearance (physiological) can be enhanced candidate for office. Here's racial, gender, socioeconomic background of the candidate, and so on. Everything that serves to reach out to the marginalized, everything that contributes to an inclusive message is good. Copied as written above "racial traits can also function as a means of inclusion as in the case of the woman, not just color of the skin, but a different sensitivity has been obtained by sedimentation of discrimination as we are. Basically to be racially different from the blank, which has been the victim of power, and therefore would be in readiness to help the weak. That is the implicit assumption and hence comes the promise, and is a beautiful promise of inclusion. " Out sider features relate primarily to the physiological characteristics of the candidates who come to the message of inclusión.El messenger is the message (received). Which is not to say that once in power to implement a policy that reduces feelings of marginalization of the majority, or even increase it.
It said what they share, usually between the three definitions (out siders, pose out siders out siders and traits) is that they are perceived by the electorate as factors inclusive.
Now, what does the campaign as teaching at the out siders? That talk in the next article.
