Power
For our considerations of the role of power in organizations, I have derived a conceptual framework from Steven Lukes (2005) that we can use as a shared vocabulary for presenting and comparing articles.
-
Behavior: What is the relationship of individuals' behavior to the exercise of power? What role does behavior play?
-
Decision making and control: Who makes decisions and who has control? How do decision making and control function in the exercise of power?
-
Conflict: What is the status of conflict, and what is its role in the exercise of power?
-
Interests: How are individuals' interests advanced? Protected?
-
Moral orientation: What are the normative goals that the exercise of power aims to achieve?
