Homem-forte

Umhomem-forte^[1](eminglês:strongman) é um líder político que governa pela força e conduz umregime autoritário.^[2]O termo é muitas vezes usado como sinônimo de "ditador"nomundo ocidental,mas difere de um "senhor da guerra"e geralmente não tem as conotações negativas, especialmente em alguns países daEuropa OrientaleÁsia Central.

Umhomem fortenão é necessariamente sempre umchefe de Estadoouchefe de governoformal; às vezes jornalistas usam o termo para descrever uma figura militar ou política que exerce muito mais influência sobre um governo do que uma constituição local o permitiria. O GeneralManuel Noriega,por exemplo, foi muitas vezes apelidado de o "homem-forte doPanamá"pela enorme quantidade de poder político, que exercia sobre o Panamá, apesar do fato de não ser o presidente formal do Estado.

Da mesma forma, nem toda discussão de "liderança forte"^[3](ou toda promessa de fornecer tais^[4]) prevê o domínio por umhomem-forte.
