What is a Cult of Personality?
A
cult of personality refers to a group of people united by the extreme reverence of a charismatic leader.
Nikita Khrushchev first coined the term
cult of personality in his 1956 speech titled "On the Cult of Personality and Its Consequences." Khrushchev warned against blind allegiance to a leader, especially since leaders are human and have flaws. A leader with a significant flaw could lead a country to ruin. This pejorative term, the cult of personality, has stuck ever since and is applicable throughout history and cultures.
Generally, the most notorious leaders of personality cults are the rulers of
totalitarian or
authoritarian governments. Totalitarian and authoritarian governments are ruled by a single leader who uses political, social, philosophical, or religious beliefs to maintain total control of a geographic domain or group of people. While many cults of personality revolve around totalitarian and authoritarian leaders, other examples do not, such as personality cults based on celebrity admiration and corporate culture. The
leader of a cult of personality uses many tactics to inspire devotion, such as propaganda or advertising with the intent to sway opinion.
