Social Power
Social Power Abstracts, Social Power Bibliography, Books On Social Power, Syllabus, Social Groups, Social Organization
Examining ways in which various forms of social organization work to empower members of some social groups and disadvantage others, in systematic and regular ways, and examining a wide range of kinds of power - economic, political, sexual, cultural - in a variety of social and historical settings. And addressing the issue of power and its implications for social inequality in various forms of society.
Economically conditioned power is not identical with power. The emergence of economic power may be the consequence of power existing on other grounds. Man does not strive for power only to enrich himself economically. Power, including economic power, may be valued for its own sake. The striving for power is conditioned by the social honor it entails. Not all power entails honor.
Social power is exercised within any given society in a variety of forms: coercive (force), economic (money power) and ideological (the control of meaning). Power is the dynamic which keeps the social world in motion.
|
Social power may be used for good or for ill. Social power is the ability to influence other people. What gives people power? Why is it so often abused?
Sociologists usually define power as the ability to impose one's will on others, even if those others resist in some way.
By social power we mean opportunity existing within a social relationship which permits one to carry out one's own will even against resistance and regardless of the basis on which this opportunity rests.
Social power is not something abstract. In one guise or
another. Social power permeates all human relationships and shapes us as individuals, and
what we can become as social beings.
Social power is not the only basis of social honor, and social honor, or prestige, may be
the basis of economic power.
Social power, as well as honor, may be guaranteed by the legal order, but... [the legal
order] is not their primary source.

Books On Social Power
The
Sources of Social Power (History of Social Power from the beginning to AD 1760)
Book by Michael Mann
' ... a very considerable accomplishment. There is no doubt in my mind that the book is an
important contribution to comparative sociology.' Anthony Giddens, King's College,
Cambridge
This is the first part of a three-volume work on the nature of power in human societies.
In it, Michael Mann identifies the four principal 'sources' of power as being control over
economic, ideological, military, and political resources. He examines the interrelations
between these in a narrative history of power from Neolithic times, through ancient Near
Eastern civilisations, the classical Mediterranean age, and medieval Europe, up to just
before the Industrial Revolution in England. Rejecting the conventional monolithic concept
of a 'society', Dr. Mann's model is instead one of a series of overlapping, intersecting
power networks. He makes this model operational by focusing on the logistics of power -
how the flow of information, manpower, and goods is controlled over social and
geographical space-thereby clarifying many of the 'great debates' in sociological theory.
The present volume offers explanations of the emergence of the state and social
stratification; of city-states, militaristic empires, and the persistent interaction
between them; of the world salvation religions; and of the peculiar dynamism of medieval
and early modern Europe. It ends by generalising about the nature of overall social
development, the varying forms of social cohesion, and the role of classes and class
struggle in history. Volume II will continue the history of power up to the present,
centering on the interrelations of nation-states and social classes. Volume III will
present the theoretical conclusions of the whole work. This ambitious and provocative
attempt to provide a new theoretical frame for the interpretation of the theory of
societies will be challenging and stimulating reading for a wide range of social
scientists, historians, and other readers concerned with understanding large-scale social
and historical processes.
Appropriating
Technology: Vernacular Science and Social Power
Book by Ron Eglash (Editor), Jennifer L. Croissant (Editor), Giovanna Di Chiro (Editor),
Rayvon Fouché (Editor)
From the vernacular engineering of Latino car design to environmental analysis among rural
women to the production of indigenous herbal cures—groups outside the centers of
scientific power persistently defy the notion that they are merely passive recipients of
technological products and scientific knowledge. This is the first study of how such
"outsiders" reinvent consumer products—often in ways that embody critique,
resistance, or outright revolt.--This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

Bullying
and Teasing : Social Power in Children's Groups - Book by Gayle L. Macklem
Current research demonstrates that bullying affects all children in schools, not simply
the several students who may be most visibly involved in an individual incident. In order
to prevent escalation or to stop the action, something different must happen. The victim
or bully must change, but this may not be easy. Importantly the classmates or the adults
who witness the interaction have the power to change the interaction as well.Bullying and
Teasing: Social Power in Children's Groups frames bullying and teasing as part of the
critical foundations of elementary and middle school planning that will allow children to
experience the sense of personal safety needed to learn and grow. Bullying and Teasing is
designed for school psychologists and other school mental health workers, including school
counselors, social workers and school nurses, who want to address the ways bullying and
teasing impact both individual students and the school as a whole. The book will also be
of interest to school administrators, health coordinators, special educators and school
board members.
Gayle L. Macklem is a Massachusetts licensed school psychologist and a Massachusetts
licensed educational psychologist. She has served in the field of education for 29 years.
A former president of the Massachusetts School Psychologists Association (MSPA), Gayle is
the current Technology Chairperson of the state association. She was elected School
Psychologist of Year by MSPA in 2001, received a GPR award from the National Association
of School Psychologists in 1997, and received a special merit award for action research in
schools in 1993. Gayle taught for a number of years in the Counseling and School
Psychology training program at UMass-Boston. She is currently practicing in the
Manchester-Essex Regional School District as school psychologist/team chairperson and
serves as testing coordinator for the district.
The
Dark Zone: Groundwater, Irrigation, Politics and Social Power in North Gujarat
Book by Anjal Prakash
Based on an intensive social anthropological study of a village in north Gujarat, this
book investigates the factors that shaped unrestrained use of groundwater and the
responses of various social groups to this process.
A student of Rural Management and Social Work, Anjal Prakash won a Ford Foundation
doctoral fellowship to the Irrigation and Water Engineering Group, Wageningen University
and Reasearch Center, the Netherlands, in 2000. He works with the Water and Sanitation
Management Organisation, Gandhinagar.
Frustrated
Fellowship: The Black Baptist Quest for Social Power
Book by James Melvin Washington
Politics
in Place : Social Power Relations in an Australian Country Town Book by Ian Gray
Politics in Place focuses on political life in a typical Australian agricultural town. It
examines the maintenance of a local political power structures through an analysis of the
town's social processes and asociated ideologies. Dr Gray argues that local government
does affect peoples' lives and discusses why it is that some people can use their local
political system to their advantage while others remain unempowered. Unlike many earlier
studies, Politics in Place does not rely on the identification of an élite group, nor
does it merely decribe static features of social stratification. Rather, it examines the
historically-based processes that have created the constraints which limit prospects for
local people. The book will be of interest to anyone wishing to gain an insight into the
workings of politics at local level.
Social
Power and the CEO: Leadership and Trust in a Sustainable Free Enterprise System Book
by Elliott Jaques
The power of top management is pervasive and profound. It affects the quality of economic
life, but also our personal and social lives. Equally strong is its impact on the
sustainability of a free enterprise system. Psychoanalyst, teacher, and management
consultant, Elliott Jaques argues that great as this power is, it is being squandered, not
because of what managers do but because of what they don't know. Serious misconceptions
about managerial leadership--and equally serious misunderstandings of people--abound.
Jaques argues that the problems inherent in the way management is practiced are
attributable to gravely dysfunctional systems of managerial leadership, systems that have
evolved over the years and are now, despite their ineffectualities, taken for granted. The
result of more than a half century of thought, observation, analysis and experimentation,
Jaques' book is essential reading for academics, students, consultants, top management,
and executives on the way up throughout the public and private sectors.
ELLIOTT JAQUES is Research Professor of Management Science, Department of Management,
George Washington University, and Professor Emeritus of Social Science at Brunel
University, England. He holds an M.D. from Johns Hopkins, a Ph.D. from Harvard, and is a
member of the British Psycho-Analytical Society. Dr. Jaques was cited by (then General)
Colin Powell for ". . . his outstanding contribution in the field of military
leadership theory and instruction. . . ." He is author of numerous articles, in one
of which he created the concept of the mid-life crisis, and more than 20 books, among them
The Life and Behavior of Living Organisms, published by another imprint of Greenwood
Publishing Group, Praeger Publishers.
Dangerous
Diagnostics : The Social Power of Biological Information
Book by Dorothy Nelkin, Laurence Tancredi
Sociologist Nelkin and law professor Tancredi ask the old question, "What are they
keeping in our files?" about a panoply of new information that falls under the rubric
of personal biochemistry, including genetic testing, brain chemistry studies, and
hereditary predisposition to conditions such as heart disease. The authors say that
medical test results are finding their way into personnel files, school records, insurance
company data banks, and courtrooms and are too incompletely understood, wrongly applied,
or used for the wrong reasons. Particularly well-reasoned in its analysis of biological
data in the courtroom, this book is slightly ahead of its time and should have a place in
collections on the cutting edge of social issues. Well-documented, but, alas, no
bibliography, just end notes.
- Mark L. Shelton, Columbus, Ohio
Copyright 1989 Reed Business Information, Inc.--This text refers to an out of print or
unavailable edition of this title.
Dangerous Diagnostics is a powerful study of the pervasiveness of diagnostic testing and
the potential it offers institutions to classify, categorize, and ultimately control
individuals. Nelkin and Tancredi explore the ethical, social, and legal implications of
cutting-edge technologies that can lead to new forms of discrimination in the name of
standardized, objective measurements. They caution against the creation of an underclass
deemed unemployable, untrainable, or uninsurable by such diagnostic tests.
Social Power and Legal Culture: Litigation Masters in Late Imperial China (Law, Society, and Culture in China) Book by Melissa MacAuley
Mrs.
Astor's New York : Money and Social Power in a Gilded Age Eric Homberger
New York scholar Homberger (Scenes from the Life of a City: Corruption and Conscience in
Old New York) gathers a dog's breakfast of research into his latest exploration of the Big
Apple. The result is an intriguing and curious volume that can't seem to decide whether
it's a coffee table book or a study of the psychology of late 19th- and early 20th-
century American aristocrats. The idea of an aristocracy emerging from a fervently
democratic society is oxymoronic, as Homberger points out, but for over half a century New
York's upper class was peculiarly concerned with such a hierarchy. Ward McAllister's
"Patriarchs," considered to be the elite of New York society, and Mrs. Astor's
list of "Four Hundred" were the bread and butter of this era's snobbery; the
latter half of Homberger's book delves into McAllister's and Astor's lives, chronicling
their cotillions, lunches, amusements and affairs with considerable relish. The slightly
whimsical last chapter, "Being Mrs. Astor," which begins with a description of
that lady's last years (spent planning parties that her doctors had instructed her
servants not to hold, and making purchases merchants knew not to send to her house), may
be the best part of Homberger's book. His skill for bringing to life characters of a
century ago saves the book from the occasionally tedious specificity of earlier chapters,
which seem to have gotten bogged down by admittedly impressive research in newspapers and
other contemporary records. Illus.
From Library Journal
This history is a rare find-a book of sophisticated scholarship that also makes for
entertaining reading. Homberger's (The Historical Atlas of New York City) descriptive
account of aristocratic life in late 19th- and early 20th-century America is an attempt to
deal in nonfiction with a subject he feels is mostly understood through novels. New York's
aristocracy may have been newer and more fluid than that of other cities, but it was still
"a great lumbering elephant of a social presence." Paradoxically, the wealth and
power of the social elites resulted not in a sense of freedom but a strangling anxiety to
conform to the narrow rules of correct behavior. Mrs. William Astor, a central player in
New York's world of aristocratic excess, was an arbiter of social acceptability while also
working to keep the undesirables in their place. Homberger takes us to the extravagant
balls that defined the social season, develops the rise of the media involved with social
life, and describes the elites' tony neighborhoods. All this occurs against the backdrop
of a city teeming with poverty, as illustrated by Jacob Riis's influential pictorial, How
the Other Half Lives (1890). Solidly researched and a delight to read, this book is
recommended for public libraries and for academic libraries with collections in New York
history.

Nuclear
Power and Social Power - Book by Rick Eckstein
We often think of "progress" and "economic growth" as natural
developments that benefit all members of society. Nuclear Power and Social Power
challenges this view and instead suggests that specific definitions of progress and
economic growth can be molded by powerful individuals, organizations, and classes. These
definitions, and their manifestation in social policy, often serve narrow parochial
interests rather than the common good. Such inequities of social power, hiding behind the
semantic facade of "progress" and "economic growth," threaten the
existence of democratic communities and societies.
In Nuclear Power and Social Power, Rick Eckstein helps us understand this perspective of
social power by examining the civilian nuclear power industry in the United States. More
specifically, he compares the Shoreham reactor in New York and the Seabrook reactor in New
Hampshire, which faced similar financial and public oppositions yet met very different
fates. The $5.5 billion Shoreham plant was the first completed and licensed reactor in the
United States never to operate commercially. Seabrook, costing about the same, managed to
open even though its primary owner went bankrupt. Despite the differences, the cast of
winners and losers was very much the same. In both cases, banks and other powerful
corporations won while regular folks and small businesses lost amid a barrage of
egalitarian discourse about progress and growth.
A critical examination of the Shoreham and Seabrook nuclear power plants and the way
expensive corporate initiatives purported as good for social "progress" or
"economic growth" actually serve the parochial interests of powerful
organizations and classes

Dark
Ghetto: Dilemmas of Social Power Book by Kenneth Bancroft Clark
KENNETH B. CLARK began his education in the Harlem public schools and was later graduated
from Howard University and received his Ph.D. from Columbia University. In 1962 he
returned to Harlem as an "involved observer," serving as the chief consultant
and chairman of the board of directors of the Harlem Youth Opportunities Unlimited project
(Haryou), from which Dark Ghetto arose. But, according to Clark, "Dark Ghetto is a
summation of my personal and lifelong experiences and observations as a prisoner within
the ghetto long before I was aware that I was really a prisoner."
Bible-Carrying
Christians: Conservative Protestants and Social Power Book by David Harrington Watt
In the United States, there are hundreds of thousands of Protestant churches whose members
habitually carry their Bibles with them. These churches--often referred to as
"evangelical" or "fundamentalist"--play a crucial role in shaping
American society. In this book, David Watt draws on years of fieldwork to present an
elegant reinterpretation of the way that conservative Protestants influence American
politics and culture. At the heart of the book is a sympathetic, but far from uncritical,
analysis of those forms of social power that are assumed to be natural among
Bible-carrying Christians. While outsiders often presuppose that evangelical Christians
take for granted the authority of certain institutions (among them the American state,
corporations, ministers, men, and heterosexuals), Watt argues that the reality is far more
complex. This is a concise and lively book that sheds new light on the way that
Bible-carrying Christians influence the way that people in America think--and avoid
thinking--about social power.

Sociology (SOCI) 381- The Sociology of Power and Inequality
SOCI 381 examines ways in which different forms of social organization work to empower
members of some social groups and disadvantage others, in systematic and regular ways, and
examines a wide range of kinds of power — economic, political, sexual, cultural
— in a variety of social and historical settings. Power is not something abstract and
distant. In one guise or another, it permeates all human relationships and shapes who we
are as individuals, and what we can become as social beings.
Although students will discuss the inequities of contemporary Canadian class structure and
learn about the Irvings of New Brunswick and who's who in the Canadian political elite,
students will also encounter feudal lords, communist bureaucrats, and a Black feminist who
asks sharp questions about race and gender. Students will be asked to produce their
driver's licence and credit cards and to analyse what they reveal about modern forms of
identity and power. SOCI 381 examines the unequal shaping of our social identities.

Course Objectives
To review interdisciplinary perspectives on violence.
To assess the state of sociological research on violence.
To examine structural and cultural power in modern violence.
To develop a project that explores and analyzes a sub-area of violence.
Overarching Questions of the Seminar
Do we support a culture of violence? What does that look like, what does that mean?
What would shifting power dynamics mean in terms of violence?
What is the future of violence? Or, what is the violence of the future?
Given what we learn this semester, let us consider: should a responsible societal goal be
one of reducing violence, or one of redistributing violence?

Social Power and Psychological Distress - Introduction - Hardly any of the 'symptoms' of psychological distress may correctly be seen as medical matters. The so-called 'neuroses', 'psychoses' and related forms of suffering are nothing to do with faulty biology; nor indeed are they the outcome of individual moral weakness or other personal failing. They are the creation of the social world in which we live, and that world is structured by power. Social power may be defined as the means of obtaining security or advantage, and it will be exercised within any given society in a variety of forms: coercive (force), economic (money power) and ideological (the control of meaning). Power is the dynamic which keeps the social world in motion. It may be used for good or for ill. - djsmail.com/
