Moć: jedno radikalno shvatanje
Power: A Radical View

Summary/Abstract: This short book, developed from a speech Lukes originally gave at the Sorbonne, is groundbreaking in power theory research. The essay builds a critique of the behaviouralist, functionalist notions of what constitutes power and how it manifests itself. Lukes’ third dimension of power exists where people are subject to domination and acquiesce in that domination. The intentional stance allows us to predict and explain others’ behaviour in ways that those agents may not recognise. It denies agents’ privileged access to their own reasons for actions. Using the intentional stance we can understand how agents may acquiesce in their own domination. We can also make distinctions between those who dominate knowingly and those who dominate without realising they do so.
