This work explores the concept of charisma across various fields, beginning with an introduction that outlines its development in social sciences. The first section delves into the interplay of social construction and cultural dynamics in understanding charisma, followed by a discussion on the relationship between charisma, community, and movement, presenting two paradigms of charismatic processes. The exploration continues with institutionalized forms of charisma, referencing Max Weber's theories. In the realm of religion, the text examines the charismatic movement surrounding Jesus, highlighting its stigmatic features, and discusses everyday charisms within renewal movements. Additionally, it investigates the cultural sociology of charisma in the context of the New Age movement and analyzes the manifestations of charisma through the lens of two popes. The political dimension addresses the charisma of reason, the institutionalized forms of charisma in the U.S. system involving the Constitution, presidency, and Supreme Court. It also critiques populist performances of borrowed charisma and reflects on the heroism associated with the generation of 1890 and its political implications. The concluding section provides a critical retrospective on theoretical challenges and future perspectives in charisma research, encapsulating the contributions of various authors throughout the text.
