Produktinformationen zu „Forms of Power (ePub)“
Political power is often viewed as the sole embodiment of 'social
power', even while we recognize that social power manifests itself
in different forms and institutional spheres. This new book by
Gianfranco Poggi suggests that the three principal forms of social
power - the economic, the normative/ideological and the political -
are based on a group's privileged access to and control over
different resources.
Against this general background, Poggi shows how various
embodiments of normative/ideological and economic power have both
made claims on political power (considered chiefly as it is
embodied in the state) and responded in turn to the latter's
attempt to control or to instrumentalize them. The embodiment of
ideological power in religion and in modern intellectual elites is
examined in the context of their relations to the state. Poggi also
explores both the demands laid upon the state by the business elite
and the impact of the state's fiscal policies on the economic
sphere. The final chapter considers the relationship between a
state's political class and its military elite, which tends to use
the resource of organized coercion for its own ends.
Forms of Power will be of interest to students and
scholars of sociology and politics.
