Theory Of Power

A THEORY OF POWER In his penetrating analysis of the structure of power and the human condition, Jeff Vail unravels the functioning of our world and proposes a core concept of patterns of power-relationships. This historical critique of hierarchy sweeps from anthropology and psychology to economics and politics, ultimately presenting a model for a sustainable, human-compatible future. A Theory of Power is THE most innovative approach to anarchist theory in a generation, breaking free from the chains of past dogma and integrating the most current knowledge of the functioning of our world.

I salute your important work!" --John Zerzan, anarchist philosopher, author of Elements of Refusal, Future Primitive and Running on Emptiness "Fascinating" --Noam Chomsky, author of Hegemony or Survival, described by the New York Times as "arguably the most important intellectual alive."Vail, Jeff is the author of 'Theory Of Power', published 2004 under ISBN 9780595330300 and ISBN 0595330304.
