Additional Book Details
Power is a central concept in many disciplines in the social sciences, including political science, sociology, social-psychology, organization studies, urban politics and planning. This encyclopedia provides a much needed authoritative and comprehensive coverage of the use of power in those different discourses, enabling the different language communities to learn from each other. It provides a compendium of the concepts that build the ways in which power is conceptualized and provides analyses of related concepts. It also provides a sourcebook for those interested in studying power, and it cross references the many insights that have been provided by theorists over the years. <p>With comprehensive coverage of the use of power in the social sciences, the encyclopedia serves as a one-stop point of reference for the diverse and complex ways in which power has been used. It also provides a reference for debates central to the issues of power in different contexts and for related topics, showing how these disparate topics are related to power.</p><p>Key Themes</p><p>- Biography</p><p>- Concepts Related to Power</p><p>- Decisions and Game Theory</p><p>- Institutional Issues</p><p>- International Relations</p><p>- Interpersonal Relationships</p><p>- Intrapersonal Matters</p><p>- Key Debates</p><p>- Methodological Issues</p><p>- Political Science</p><p>- Political Theory</p><p>- Social Psychology</p><p>- Social Theory</p><p>- Theories of Power</p><p>- Types of Power</p><p>- Urban Studies</p>
