Introduction and summary

Power is traditionally defined as the ability of an individual or group to convince others to do things that they would not otherwise do (2). Such power often appears to concentrate in the hands of a few wealthy, strong and charismatic individuals—such as monarchs, presidents, tycoons and media stars. This unequal distribution of power has been described as one of the most pervasive facts of political life (3).
