The Authentic Leader in the Neoliberal Times: Development, Identity Dominance and the Politics of "Doing" in India
1OP Jindal Global University, Sonipat, India. sinchetan@gmail.com.
Abstract:
Authentic leadership in India is founded on the politics of development and social identity construction. It has been politicized with new meaning under the garb of cultural revivalism rather than the revivalism of criticality. The discourses of neoliberalism and the current sociopolitical context of India showed how the majority preferred authentic leaders who enhanced social class mobility and change and fulfilled cultural-political needs. The present article attempts to understand how an authentic leader represents the social identity and values of the majority. The new politics of resistance, movements, and leadership are discussed.
