Summary

Power theory, as a burgeoning field of study, has had, and continues to have, a huge impact across the social sciences. In particular, there has been considerable innovative work in the fields of organization studies and politics which in turn has fed research in a wide array of related fields, such as public administration, cultural studies, management and democratic theory. However, work on power is sprawling and seemingly eclectic - Power and Politics, Four-Volume Set, takes stock of the theory by reviewing its foundations, current status and emerging new directions in political theory. With Mark Haugaard as lead editor, Power and Politics focuses exclusively and closely on power theory in the context of political power.
