I argue that the PS underwent significant shifts adopting a 'bourgeois' idea of patriotism, which was strongly contested by the party until then.

To address this, we investigate Fidel Castro's leadership through 32 semi-structured interviews with Cuban people. Narratives reveal his decolonial leadership as he led the Cuban Revolution, and then Cuba for over 50 years, resisting Western hegemony. Findings problematise the applicability of conceptions of charismatic–transformational leadership (CTL) to non-Western cultures. Benevolent paternalism emerged as a key additional aspect in the Cuban context. Western critiques of CTL as leader-centric and prone to hero-worship were not seen as problematic in the Cuban sample.
