Özet

Even though there is a towering literature on political leadership, the common factor of this inventory is its' a-contextual, individually based and atomistic character. As an attempt to address these limitations, this article will offer an account to complement the existing literature by locating the problematic in a defined context. Accordingly, the aim of this article is to utilize the concepts of responsiveness and responsibility for the assessment of political leadership. As a case study, Recep Tayyip Erdogan who holds the office of prime ministry of Turkish Republic since 2003 will be analysed.
