About this book
This book offers a pluralistic vision of the way econo-mists have dealt with the question of power in society over the last two centuries. Econo-mists’ ideas about power are examined from political, theoretical and policy-making points of view, with additional discussion of the active participation of econo-mists in the management of power.
The book is organized into four main conceptions of power relations: i) Power as embedded in political institutions; ii) Power as emerging from the asymmetric relations caused by the unequal distribution of income and wealth; iii) Power as associated to the monopolistic or oligopolistic position held by some firms in the market; and iv) Power as the management of economic policies by the state.
Mosca brings together contributions from a range of scholars to analyse how econo-mists have considered the role of power, putting the discussion into a much needed historical context.
