Summary: | The introduction to the special issue on charisma' offers a very brief overview of the development of the concept in the social sciences and various critiques and intersecting debates. It casts a close look at Max Weber's sometimes contradictory use of the concept and the different ways he conceptualized it in his sociology of religion and his sociology of domination. It then examines alternative theoretical approaches to charisma' that emerge in the course of the twentieth century before outlining this special issue's contribution to the conceptual debate and the individual articles' operationalization of the term by viewing charisma as relational, communicative, procedural, as well as related to ideas, practices, and objects. |
