Zorluk: ZorLegitimacy: Meaning, Determinants, and Maintenance

A political regime whose legitimacy rests exclusively on charismatic authority can maintain stable, long-term political continuity across executive transitions without institutionalizing or routinizing its authority into legal-rational or traditional structures.

Cevap: Cevap

Cevap

The statement is False. Charismatic authority is personal and transient, meaning long-term political stability and legitimacy maintenance require transforming (routinizing) that authority into legal-rational or traditional institutional structures.
Political legitimacy derived from charismatic authority is intrinsically tied to the personal traits and public appeal of a specific individual. Without converting this charisma into stable legal-rational rules or traditional succession mechanisms—a process known as routinization—the regime suffers severe legitimacy crises and political instability upon the leader's departure.
