A Causal Map Framework to Explain Support for Strong Leaders in Politics

International Social Science Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The article introduces a computational theory explaining why some people support strong leaders in politics, arguing that this support sometimes arises because people view a strong leader as means to address social problems. The theory proposes that people develop a causal map concerning the consequences of the rise of a strong leader.
