Having analyzed the use of soft and hard power in politics and diplomacy in his previous books, Mr. Nye has now turned his attention to the relationship between power and leadership, in both the political and business spheres. Machiavelli, he notes, concluded that one ought to be both feared and loved, but as it is difficult for the two to go together, it is much safer to be feared than loved. In short, hard power is preferable to soft power. But modem leadership theorists have e to the opposite conclusion. The context of leadership is changing, the observe, and the historical emphasis on hard power is being outdated. In modem panies and democracies, power is increasingly diffused and traditional hierarchies(等級(jí)制 ) are being undermined, making soft power ever more important. But that does not mean coercion should now take a back seat to persuasion. Mr. Nye argues. Instead, he advocates a synthesis of these two views. The conclusion of The Powers to Lead ,his survey of the theory of leadership, is that a bination of hard and soft power, which he calls” smart power”, is the best approach. The dominant theoretical model of leadership at the moment is ,apparently, the “transformational leadership pattern”.
