摘要

This issue of the Journal begins with a paper by Hearn on the social evolution of power-to and power-over. The framing of the question itself presupposes a number of important theoretical premises. The first is that power-to, as the capacity for action, and power-over, as the capacity to make others do things they would not otherwise, are mutually interrelated phenomena. The capacity for action that social actors gain from membership of social systems, which is their power-to, is premised upon the creation of a complex social order of command and obedience, which entails power-over. Even if we assume that social actors are inherently freedom-loving creatures (arguably, a doubtful liberal premise), their desire to be able to realize goals in collaboration with others presupposes the acceptance of power-over. Because the acceptance of power-over frequently yields power-to, even for the subaltern, power-over is usually significantly more complex than simple coercion. Hence, the acceptance of relations of domination is not necessarily norma-tively reprehensible, nor analytically irrational and coerced. Once the theorist accepts that power-to presupposes complex social relations of power-over, the social world of power becomes a complex trade-offs between power-to and power-over. Social actors subject to power-over are not simply subaltern dominated victims but individuals for whom membership of social systems brings both benefits and costs.
