theories of consensual power  

Définition

  • Contrary to the commonsense everyday view of power, in which power is thought of in terms of coercion or the threat of violence, most routine political and social power is based on some level of consent. To make sense of this consensual base, it is necessary to analyze power both from a sociological empirical stance and a normative philosophical one.
