“…[12] However, if we take into consideration the intensity of color revolutions, maydans, and public rebellions in our modern times, one should draw a conclusion, that the people, the crowds also play an important role and can be seen as followers, who have a significant influence on their leader. [13] To put it another way, the issue of leadership and the analysis of leadership model can not be studied in separation from the major determining factors of socio-political life [14], cultural and historic context and the personality of the leader. When choosing an adequate model of leader`s interaction with followers and constituents the political culture of the society plays a substantial part.…”

The purpose of the research is the analysis of the constituent model of leadership and elite positioning and power, identifying the peculiarities of applying this model to modern social and political processes in terms of globalization and informatization. The research methodology was based on the body of scientific methods and approaches in the context of the research subject and logic. An integrative social and psychological approach as well as political analysis were applied. Analysis and synthesis, analogy, generalization, deduction, induction and comprehensive study were applied as the basic methods of the research. The synthesis of structural-functional, systemic and institutional approaches resulted in analyzing the constituent approaches to the leadership and elite positioning in the power structures. The article deals with the theoretical and methodological aspects of the leadership subject, analyzes the leadership phenomenon in the current socio-political context, examines the models of cross-elite communication as well as the peculiarities of interaction in the chain: leader- followers-constituents. It is noted in the article, that situational leadership vertical models, which characterize traditional leadership, are limited in the sphere of application. In order to be effective, a leader must make sure there is horizontal communication and feedback between elite, followers and constituents on every level of the power structure. The consolidation of the leader and elite, elite and society should be grounded by common strategic goals and values.

“…Out of the EU context the term "regional elites' is often used in Russian literature: D. Badovskii and A. Shutov (1997) gave a historical perspective of the role of regional elites which used to strengthened in crisis periods. E. Avdokushin, A. Ponedelkov, and S. Vorontsov, (2015) note a discrepancy between the traditional meaning of elitism and the possession of real political power while A. Chirikova (2010) analyzes the political strategies of regional elites in the context of the power vertical.…”

Perm Krai and the socio-political processes taking place in it are in many ways typical of Russia, and therefore of interest to a wide audience of researchers and political analysts. Based on the theoretical constructions of international elites studies and the Perm School of Political Science and elitology, we study the political and business elites of the region, their political behavior, aspects of identity, as well as the most politically sensitive topics in the life of the region. Relying primarily on the literature analysis and subsequent own semi-standardized in-depth interviews (N10) with representatives of regional elites - the following results were obtained. The identity of the elites and everymen in Perm region is somewhat vague, associated with the neutral notion of geographical region of the Kama region. Liberalism in the economic sphere and a relatively stable inter-elite consensus in the political sphere, based on technocracy, are characteristic of the region’s policy for some decades. The region is characterized by a low socio-political dynamics compared to the benchmark regions of the Urals and Siberia, due to lack of regionally oriented elites and businesses and the predominance of various kinds of “Varangians” in the political class. The socio-political and cultural landscape of the region (the Perm Cultural Project) becomes a starting place and a source of supplies for the elites, receiving back very little. Thus, the region remains a promising project that cannot be realized in any way.
