This entry, speaks of, Authoritative Figures. Authoritative Figures, should not be, confused, with, full blown authority. In many ways, Authoritative Figures, consists of, the average person, out there [in ones community or world], who is, capable, of being, influential, when it comes to, any form, of, problem solving. When one, has a problem, requiring, group work, rather than teamwork [assigned problems]. This can, also very much, include, feelings, of being, treated unfairly, and rather, than, calling up, ones, local Human rights, organization, one should instead, seek, to seek out, Authoritative Figures, within, ones midst.
Authoritative Figures, are more than, important today, where, in most parts, of the world, authority [in one form or another], has, mainly, broken down. Authoritative Figures, are, important, in that, they are, rather influential, when it comes, to solving, just about, any problem, out there. They are able, for instance, to lead, the masses, against, any form, of, injustice perceived [and wrongs], and basically, help, correct, any form of, wronging, against, any just group, out there. The people identify with them, seeing them, as, average joes, who, happened, to rise up, the ranks, by their own, hard work, and especially, sacrifice [self-made successes, in the general sense of the term].
Different regions, of the world, have different kinds, of, Authoritative Figures.
North America: Body build
In North America, the larger, the build, in body, the more, influential, in just about, anything, one is. If you have a problem, that one, cannot solve, due, to many factors [including those perceived as discriminatory], you will want, to seek out, people, with large, builds [and an accompanying baritone voice (even deep)]. Such figures, tend to be, rather, influential, in general, American life, and can even, prevent, one, from being, arrested, by the police. They are more influential, especially, if, they have, some, form, of training, in, law or logic.
South America: Popular figures
In South America, figures, perceived, as being, popular, are rather, influential, in helping, deal, with just, about, any kind, of problem, out there. From musicians, to football stars, to the local, popular guy. This model, of Authoritative Figures, is highly used, around, the world, with lacking, results; it just, does not work well, outside, South America.
Europe: Voice & Language
In Europe, those who have mastered, the use, of, language, and ones, voice, are innately, seen, as being, Authoritative Figures. This is especially true, if, they can speak, English, French or German, as fluently, as possible [most Europeans, cannot, speak, these languages, fluently]. With the voice, the use, of, pitch, accents, dialects [and slangs too], and the likes, are, important, in becoming, an, Authoritative Figure.
Africa: Family name
In Africa, the Family, one originates from, determines, how, influential, by nature, one is. Certain Families, reknowed, for their, wealth, or, religious values, have, traditionally been, influential, in helping, the masses, solve, problems, they just, cannot solve, by themselves. Many of these families, eventually, became, entangled, in politics.
Asia: Success figures
In Asia, figures, percieved, as, success figures, are highly, influential, in helping, deal, with, problems. Success figures, should not be, confused, with, the wealthy, or, highly educated persons. In Asia, success figures, have been, those, who, for instance, struggled, to make it, through school [with the bare necessities] [but made it, to a high, profile, university, like, Princeton], or built, business empires, from, the ground up, starting, from scratch. The former success figures, are mainly seen, in, Southeast Asia, and the latter, in, East Asia. In general, those, who made it, against, the odds. They can be rather, influential, in helping, solve, problems, and are, supported, even more, by the masses, than, the wealthy [including movie actors] are.
Middle East: Islamic scholarship
In the Middle East, figures, seen to be, well versed, in, Islamic scholarship, have traditionally, served, as, Authoritative Figures, advicing, the people, on how, to go about, solving, any problem, when stuck. Islamic scholarship, here, refers to, being well read, in just about, as many, Islamic works, as possible [from literature, to religion to Islamic science]. Today though, one finds, that, these figures, have been replaced/sidelined, by those, perceived, to be good looking.
Authoritative Figures, help give, most societies, out there, a kind of, order, and generally make, the masses, feel safe, and hopeful, about, the future. As mentioned before, they are needed, more, than ever, in a world, without, Authority, other than, hoping for, an American invasion.
