A hatalom akarása és élményközössége
The Will to Power and the Experience of Power

Summary/Abstract: The anthropological presentation of communication, interpretation, and the communicative systems of power is not a “purely” political science or empirical anthropological matter, because the world-life functions in a ritualized space, where transition between cultures and political establishments itself is a ritualized event, rather than some kind of “natural” state of being. Rites of power always have a governing and preservative instrument in the social space, which in its concrete designation is nothing more than the penetration of exercise, legitimacy, and “mechanism” of power, and violence. How does violence become a system, a permissible norm, a tolerated common law, a privilege of initiates, and how does the all-encompassing operation turn into a kind of communitas-constituting structure or ideology, carrying the meaning that reflects effectiveness of will, and “truth-values” sanctified by the dynamics of the era? How do functional “complications”, social stratification, contact-network, interaction, in addition to functional content, continuity, and legitimacy take shape in the social structure – according to encounters?
