Pages 491-515 | Published online: 06 Nov 2007
 

Notes

This article derives from work towards linguistic operationalization of leader personality, and from a broader project on biological roots of human violence. For some previous reports see David Luck, ‘Soviet and Chinese Communist Political Change: Lenin Succession, Stalin Purge, and Cultural Revolution’, Survey, no. 74/75 (1970), pp. 28–48; ‘Research Notes’ in Psychohistory Review, vol. II, no. 1 (May 1973), and vol. IV, no. 1 (July 1975); ‘A Psycholinguistic Approach to Leader Personality, I: Hitler, Stalin, Mao, and Liu’, Studies in Comparative Communism, vol. VII, no. 4 (Winter 1974), pp. 428–53. I wish to thank Nathan Leites for comments on an earlier draft of this article.
