Ethical Leadership in International Organizations: Concepts, Narratives, Judgment, and Assessment

Description

This book offers an innovative interdisciplinary approach that elucidates the importance of virtue ethics to help better understand the role of leadership in international organisations. The authors use a combination of theoretical and conceptual narratives as well as case studies to highlight both the advantages and weaknesses that the angle of virtue ethics offers. A particularly important step in times of uncertainty or crisis when the demand for leadership becomes more urgent yet more daunting. In this sense, this volume oscillates between critique and hope, since it provides a plausible, rather than a purely abstract, approach to the conceptualization and concretization of ethical leadership. 04.0_pp_vi_vi_Copyright_page 05.0_pp_vii_vii_Dedication 06.0_pp_viii_viii_Epigraph 07.0_pp_ix_x_Contents 08.0_pp_xi_xi_Contributors 09.0_pp_xii_xii_Acknowledgments 10.0_pp_1_48_The_Place_of_Ethical_Leadership_Virtues_and_Narrative_in_International_Organizations 11.0_pp_49_128_Concepts 11.1_pp_51_82_Authority_Law_and_Knowledge 11.2_pp_83_100_Commitment_to_the_Rule_of_Law 11.3_pp_101_128_Exemplarism_Virtue_and_Ethical_Leadership_in_International_Organizations 12.0_pp_129_202_Ethical_Narratives_and_Organizations 12.1_pp_131_159_Virtue_in_Algorithms 12.2_pp_160_175_Ethics_in_International_Sporting_Institutions 12.3_pp_176_202_Modes_of_Acting_Virtuously_at_the_Universal_Periodic_Review 13.0_pp_203_309_Judgment_and_Assessment_of_Ethical_Narratives_and_Leadership 13.1_pp_205_228_Imaginary_Leadership_and_Displacement 13.2_pp_229_248_Revisiting_Rainbow_Warrior 13.3_pp_249_289_Virtue_and_Leadership_in_the_World_Health_Organization 13.4_pp_290_309_Ethical_Leadership_in_Times_of_Crisis 14.0_pp_310_320_Index
