Problematic, Disruptive Power and Ethics

Eric Bolland

Chapter Chapter 6 in Clout, 2014, pp 135-152 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Cases of problematic and destructive power can take us, step-by-step from the origin to the denouement of very specific instances of the unraveling of power. In this chapter, attention will be placed on three very notable cases. These are all very public downfalls and they have important lessons for us about the downside of power: when it is corrupt and when it takes down many. There will be an added concept in this chapter and that is the idea of the power shift. In all three cases, there was a power shift from one party to another. That is not always obvious so it needs to be identified as it will in these cases.
