ABSTRACT

The article seeks to show the presence of false dilemmas (FDs) in political leadership discussions. In some areas of the political leadership debate, arguments are made from two opposing positions. When issues are presented from two dissenting viewpoints, essential alternatives are removed from the discussion. The paper utilizes narrative literature by relying on secondary data for the analysis and argues that some dichotomies in political leadership discussion, such as cause-effect, nature-nurture, and politics-administration could be false. The paper concludes that there is a need for further debate to address these FDs to advance the political leadership discussion.
