Abstract

ABSTRACT Personality approaches suggest that who the leader is crucial to adequately understanding the conjuncture and historical dynamics in studying politics. In thisagent-centred perspective, personal traits and leadership styles play significant roles in shaping a leader’s policy-making process. This article provides a chance to get inside the personal ‘black-box’ of Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, one of the most influential political figures in the history of the Republic of Turkey, in questioning who he is affects how he makes political decisions and how he reacts to institutional and situational constraints, such as e-memorandum and party closure case of the AKP. Reflecting the detailed results of systematic and comparative research, this article also empirically broadens the literature about Turkish leaders and provides a theoretical contribution to international leadership studies by highlighting the effects of a Turkish leader’s traits and styles on the domestic policy orientations in Turkey.

领导人对外部政治冲击的反应打破了这条道路：雷杰普·塔伊普·埃尔多安在电子记忆和正义与发展党关闭案件后的领导特征变化

人格研究方法表明，在政治研究中，谁是领导者对于充分理解形势和历史动态至关重要。在这种以代理人为中心的观点中，个人特质和领导风格在塑造领导者的决策过程中发挥着重要作用。本文提供了一个进入土耳其共和国历史上最具影响力的政治人物之一雷杰普·塔伊普Erdoğan个人“黑盒子”的机会，质疑他是谁影响他如何做出政治决策，以及他如何应对制度和情境限制，如电子备忘录和AKP政党关闭案。反映了系统和比较研究的详细结果，本文还通过突出土耳其领导人的特质和风格对土耳其国内政策取向的影响，实证拓宽了关于土耳其领导人的文献，并为国际领导力研究提供了理论贡献。

期刊介绍： The aim of the journal is to establish a line of communication with these regions of Europe. Previously isolated from the European mainstream, the Balkan and Black Sea regions are in need of serious comparative study as are the individual countries, no longer "at the edge" of Europe. The principal disciplines covered by the journal are politics, political economy, international relations and modern history; other disciplinary approaches are accepted as appropriate. The journal will take both an academic and also a more practical policy-oriented approach and hopes to compensate for the serious information deficit on the countries under consideration.
