Power $44.5 What is power? Is it, as Betrand Russell suggested, "the production of intended effects", or is it the capacity to produce them? And which effects count? Or is Max Weber`s definition of power as "the probability that an actor in a social relationship will be in a position to carry out his own will despite resistance" more accurate. What are the outcomes of power and who holds it? These are some of the fundamental questions answered in this colection of classic views of power. Steven Luke`s lucid and accessible introduction on the nature of power leads to pieces by Bertrand Russell, Max Weber, Robert Dahl, Hannah Arendt, Jurgen Habermas, Talcott Parsons, Nicos Polantzas, Alvin I. Goldman, Georg Simmel, J. K. Galbraith, Michel Foucault, Gerhard Lenski and Raymond Aron. The book thus provides students of politics and sociology with all the most important readings in a key area of political theory. |

Will to Power $54.86 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles The will to power is a prominent concept in the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche. The will to power describes what Nietzsche believed to be the main driving force in man; achievement, ambition, the striving to reach the highest possible position in life, these are all manifestations of the will to power. Alfred Adler incorporated the will to power into his individual psychology. This can be contrasted to the other Viennese schools of psychotherapy: Sigmund Freuds pleasure principle (will to pleasure) and Victor Frankls logotherapy (will to meaning). Each of these schools advocate and teach a very different main driving force in man. The relevance of gender and cultural differences in the application of these theories to universal humanity and nonhuman life is a source for serious concern among many scholars. The will to power has been identified in nature in the dominance hierarchies studied in many living species. Author: Surhone, Lambert M./ Timpledon, Miriam T./ Marseken, Susan F.
