How to use "Power" in context?
Power is an important concept in both positive and negative forms. It can be used to influence others and achieve goals, or it can be used to oppress others. In the scientific community, power is often examined in terms of the amount of influence a person has over others. In sociology, power is more narrowly examined as the ability of one group to control the behaviour of another group.
Power is not simply the ability to force one's will on others; it is also the ability to persuade and to create consensus. With power comes the ability to change and to influence others, which is an essential component of any successful endeavor.
