How could he keep a limited war from turning into a holocaust? When none of Kennedy’s advisers could provide him with satisfactory answers, the president shelved the proposal.

Zedong aimed to increase China’s standing in the world through the use of rapid industrialization, removing all traditions…

The other form of power is called personalized power, and it corresponds to using power for personal gain. It is very important to note that these two forms of power are not mutually exclusive. A leader can use his power to benefit others, but can also use it to benefit himself. The obvious problem is when personalized power dominates, often at the followers' expense.…
