欧盟危机背景下的德国领导有效性分析——以领导理论为分析框架

An Analysis of the Effectiveness of German Leadership in the EU Crisis-with Leadership Theory as an Analytical Framework

领导理论是研究领导有效性的理论,其研究最早兴起于企业管理领域,并不断扩展至组织行为学、心理学、社会学和政治学。欧盟治理过程中存在着大量领导者和追随者的互动现象,但是较少使用领导理论来进行分析。在现阶段,欧盟面临多重危机,德国被视为领导欧盟成员国规避、克服危机的主要力量。以领导理论为分析框架,将其应用于欧洲一体化和欧盟治理研究,分析德国领导有效性问题,能够突破思维定势,增强对复杂现象的解释力。

With the effectiveness of leadership as its focus,the leadership theory originates in the field of enterprise management and extends later to organizational behavior science,psychology,sociology and political science. Although interaction between leaders and followers is commonplace in the EU governance,the application of leadership theory in this area is very rare. At present,the EU is facing multiple crises and Germany is viewed as the main power in leading the EU member states to overcome the crisis. With the theory of leadership as the analytical framework to study the European integration,the EU governance and the effectiveness of German leadership,it could help us break through the traditional stereotype in the way of thinking and enhance our ability to explain complex phenomena.
