To have a better understanding of the world and how it works, you need to understand how power works.
Power is not an institution, and not a structure; neither is it a certain strength we are endowed with; it is the name that one attributes to a complex strategical situation in a particular society.
Michel Foucault
Most people don’t realise that power is a subject that we can learn about and understand. While power effects us all, power is rarely discussed as a subject and is even less understood.
