Inhaltsangabe
'Hugely impressive. Haugaard embraces a wide range of issues and of relevant thinkers and theories and skilfully deploys the various analytical distinctions that have surfaced in discussion of power-all within a framework that gives the reader the sense of moving both forward and deeper. The product of many years of reflection, this readable book achieves something very important indeed.' Steven Lukes, Professor of Sociology, New York University and author of Power: A Radical View 'Power is one of the most important and yet complex concepts through which we make sense of social and political life. And no one rivals Mark Haugaard in analysing equally carefully and vividly the many dimensions of power. The magnum opus of one of the most powerful and imaginative social theorists of our time.' Rainer Forst, Professor of Political Theory and Philosophy, Goethe University Frankfurt 'Pushing the standard actor-agency model toward Wittgenstein, Schutz, Austin, and cultural theory, Haugaard produces a dazzling new map of the subtle and complex intertwinings that political and social power consist of.' Jeffrey C. Alexander, Lillian Chavenson Saden Professor of Sociology, Yale University
