essay: power analysis of a real-world example

 Instructions:

  • identify power relations for their aspects of positive-sum, zero-sum, or negative sum outcomes;
  • deconstruct in a systematic analysis the evolution of an actual power relationship; and
  • speculate about power outcomes based on different uses of power instruments.

1-Choose a documented case of a power struggle from any part of society – economic, political, social, or high-profile personal – where there has a been a conflict between two sides, and a known outcome and that you find interesting. 

2-Use the taxonomies studied so far in this course: Reciprocity as a Basis for Power  ,  Ownership, Control, and Cumulative Causation in Power Relations,  Rhetoric as a Basis for Power ,  Human Versus Non-human Capital and Societal Power. Describe and analyse the types of power exercised. 

3-Offer evidence or speculate how the power instruments used were created and communicated.

4-Suggest ways in which the outcome could have changed if power instruments were used differently.

5-Your analysis should be 1500 words (+/- 50 words), single  space, excluding the title page and reference page, and should be consistent with APA referencing styles. No plagiarism.
