STATESPERSON
A
leader in national or international affairs who is often a
respected leader in a given field, who is regarded as a disinterested,
nonpartisan promoter of the public good, and is skilled or
experienced in the principles, science or administration of
government.
In
this segment of the Forum we'll highlight the views of a cross
section of our community to seek clarity, and an understanding,
as to how individuals view the two faces of leadership that
are presented here. Do they see a possibility of conciliation
between the two? Or are they so dissi
milar that only opposition is possible? |

POLITICIAN
One
who is actively involved in politics, especially party politics,
who holds or seeks a political office and seeks personal or
partisan gain often by scheming and maneuvering. At times
is skilled in the administration or science of government.
That
the phenomena
of special interest, and self-interests, is an ancient cornerstone
of most alliances begs the question: Is the Statesperson vision
attainable or is it lunacy? Can a New Ethic that is global
in dimension be articulated and embraced as a stepping-stone
that guides a new ethic
of leadership in
this millennium? |
